Packing For Patagonia
I now understand why some, those who can afford it, pay for expensive stays in Patagonian Lodges. For the past couple of months, I have been making lists, collecting, sorting fly fishing tackle, and preparing gear for the two-month trip to Patagonia; it has taken a lot of planning and sorting.

Bisbee AZ February 2022

Travel To Chile February 1, 2021
