Time to take the time....

Hi Everyone and please forgive me for taking so long in posting under the " Welcome " index and telling you a little about myself. First off, as you have no doubt figured out, I am a procrastinator. This must make me proud because I have been this way most of my life. How I managed to wed, raise three fine children and retire to a life of....no not luxury, but fishing and camping and canoeing, I have no idea. I also am a grandfather to eleven grand and wonderful kids. I am an avid warm weather, freshwater fisherman and moved to the Kawartha Lakes region after I retired. I have been mostly a shore fisherman but occasionally I would rent a boat and motor and then last year (2015) I bought a canoe and am enjoying this very much. This past summer I was in Algonquin Park for a week at Canisbay Lake trout fishing and camping by myself and I have to tell you, it was beautiful. No lake trout but what a great time trying to catch them! I am booking time once again in the park this year but in a different location. Growing up just east of Toronto at Oshawa, My father and mother had me and my three brothers busy, camping and fishing all over Ontario. My Dad and I spent a lot of time together in our boat, fishing and talking as these are some of my fondest memories that him and I share. My two boys, as hard as I tried, never really connected with the fishing thing but, you cant have everything now, can you. My wife either, as she says," that's your thing not mine" I also collect fishing reels and a little bit of tackle. Really I am just getting started and when I can get somebody here to teach me how to post pics I will share them with you all. Long winded aren't I? As the opening says, it was about time.....thanks for giving me the time to share and I have been enjoying coming here and reading and learning. Your friend, Trevor Calhoun.
