This past weekend I travelled to the Mid Missouri TU meeting in Columbia, MO, to present a day-long seminar on fly fishing.

As I got ready to shoot photos of the second and third days of the expo, I noted that the camera battery was dead. So I reached into the bag for the second battery, and guess what? It was still at home on the charger. How’s that for rushing around and forgetting an important item? […]
