Uh-Oh!

Matthew and I headed for Fish Creek today to see about catching some trout. It was a beautiful day, warm and calm. Ripley even had a good time crossing the creek and resting in the warm sandy bank. I took a call from John while standing in the middle of the creek. He was envious to hear of the 15 inch cutthroat trout Matthew brought in while we spoke.

Shortly thereafter, as I was wading to the other side of the creek, when all of the sudden...

#%$*&$%#!!

Down I went, face first into the creek. Sorry, no picture of that will ever be posted on this blog. But I do have a photo to share...

This is the hi-tech attempt to desiccate my phone after a dip in Fish Creek. The light has added a bit of heat to vaporize the abundant water it contains. And the rice and lentil mix is hopefully in need of taking on a little moisture. The bag puffed up nicely after a few minutes under the lamp, so I think it is working.

I hope it works. The phone had come back to life enough before this experiment that the screen looked good and a call was ringing. But the buttons don't seem to have any function whatsoever.

Wish me luck!

The moral of this story is that it may now be time for an iPhone.
