1 1/2, between the fly rods and the regular fishing poles they have multiplied over the years :innocentwhistle:

Back in a more simple time when I was a kid all I had was a willow branch about 6 feet of fishing line a split shot and a hook, and some hand dug not from a Styrofoam container worms. We still take the young ones out and fish like that around the camp where the brooks are all loaded with native Brooktrout, and it still works fine :wink:

It was 56 yesterday afternoon.  rode home with the windows down.  planning on doing some hiking tomorrow to get some woods time in.  Heading to a spot were Indians used to mine for rhyolite and make tools from.  Pretty cool stuff.

In North American pre-historic times, rhyolite was quarried extensively in what is now eastern Pennsylvania. Among the leading quarries was the Carbaugh Run Rhyolite Quarry Site in Adams County. Rhyolite was mined there starting 11,500 years ago.Tons of rhyolite were traded across the Delmarva Peninsula, because the rhyolite kept a sharp point when knapped and was used to make spear points and arrowheads.

Obsidian is usually of rhyolitic composition, and it has been used for tools since prehistoric times. Obsidian scalpels have been investigated for use in delicate surgery. Pumice, also typically of rhyolitic composition, finds important uses as an abrasive, in concrete,and as a soil amendment.Rhyolitic tuff was used extensively for construction in ancient Rome and has been used in construction in modern Europe.
