PREFACE [ii]
"This book is not about fly hatches, casting
techniques or spring creek tactics. It's about some very special folks,
their life in one of the prettiest spots in the country, and their development
and stewardship of ranch land that successfully supports a thriving
cattle operation side-by-side with some of the finest and most famous
spring creek trout fishing in the world."

CHAPTER FIVE
AROUND THE BEND [61,62]
"There's no place on earth we'd rather be
than right here, .... 'Paradise' has changed an awful lot just in the
past twenty years ... But we're still here and still making our living
off the land - the land that has been our life in the past, is our life
at present and will continue to be our life in the future. Our creek and
our land are very precious to us. The good Lord has blessed us with these
gifts and we continue to work hard at being good stewards to assure that
our children and grandchildren have the opportunity for a good and fulfilling
life in this very special place."
