154 permit landed with one day to go, it’s hard to think about going North, when you live in paradise.

It's a dog's life!

This has been one of The Palometa Club’s greatest seasons, we have broken records and established new ones, our friendships grow into deeper relationships and people’s lives change, we grow and we overcome, share victories and defeats.  That is life, both here in Punta Allen and in the great states in which we live.  It’s hard to think about going North to Alaska when we live in paradise.   Look at Digger’s  face, what do you think the sand and beach, or the rain and cold???

Yesterday, June 8th, we passed the 150th permit landed this season and are now at 154.  What will today bring, we will find out around 5:00 when the boats start pulling in. 

 It’s an exciting and emotional day here today.  Why, you might ask?  Well, it’s our last day of season 2011, and it’s nearly time to hang up the plywood, batten down the hatches and say to the ones we love that we will see them in December.  Every year gets more difficult to say…”until next season”.  The exciting part about today is that it’s our end of the season FIESTA , and not just any fiesta, this is going to be a party like we have never seen before.  We have guides BBQ’ing, the girls preparing the local favorites and me…well,  it can’t be a party without my pasta, tomato & cucumber salad and america’s favorite spinach dip.  Of course we can not leave out the kids, they will be bouncing off the wall’s in anticipation for 1 bright red Elmo and 1 pink and white Hello Kitty pinata, they will hash, bash and slash the things until they are emptied of all the sugary goodies inside.

David Leake from Tail Waters Fly Fishing Co. has brought down such a fun group.  Matt who works with, and for David is a genius behind the camera, they will be setting up a “photo booth” at the party tonight.  In saying that, you can all live vicariously through us as the pictures flow in from beginning to end as we wind down (or up) the end of a fantastic season. 

Until then….
