Sad Events Unfolding at Yellowstone

If you haven't been keeping up with the historical flooding that is taking place in and around Yellowstone National Park, it is worth a google.  Rivers are flooding at levels that they never reached and at flows that have never been recorded for them.  Roads are getting washed away, iconic bridges are being carried downstream, and entrance to the park is closed.  The good news is that all of those things can be fixed with money, time, and work.  What cannot be fixed so easily is livelihoods.

This is the busy season for fly fishing guides and fly shops.  This is what they rely on to make a living and they are dependent on rivers, fish, and customers.  None of those are available right now.  I am sure that there will be ways to donate to help and we can all keep our eyes open for ways to help these folks.  If I run across something that looks trustworthy and helpful, I will pass it along.  If you run across something, please send it to me at showmeflyguy@gmail.com.  Until then, please keep these folks in your thoughts and prayers if you are of a religious persuasion.
