You could always replace it with a GD Steal Your Face. 😉
Anyone else waiting for Cooler Days?

Meh. I'm a guy who knows quite a bit of music and I love many kinds, but I've always found the dead to be only okay.
The Dead just never did it for me.
This is my third avatar since on this site. Avatar #1 was Wilco's Summerteeth Album..Avatar #2 was the duck from Duck Hunt. Avatar #3 is King Crimson.. And I already have the album cover for Avatar #4 in mind....

Understood. It's why we have chocolate and vanilla. 🙂

Damn, crazy that I remember the Wilco avatar before I knew who was who on here.
I'm a late in life Dead convert - largely through my wife and eventually seeing this Greg Ginn photo:
A more longstanding curiosity for me has been username @WeekendNacho
I don't think they've been seen for awhile, but I wonder where their handle comes from.

THIS!
(I have 7 kids: ages 8-26. For some brilliant reason, Iowa State, U Iowa, Kirkwood Community College, Regis Middle School, All Saints Elementary School are ALL starting this Monday! My poor wife is all kinds of worked up trying to figure out how to be in 3 places at once!
Not too mention the garden (remember all those tomato plants I planted in June? Great! Now they are loaded with the most lovely tomatoes, now what? ), the chicken coop needs cleaned, and the new vineyard side project. But wait, there's more: just got emails from the kids new soccer coaches-fall soccer practice starts this week!, choir director emailed their show choir competion schedules!
So, yes, it gets busy fast-especially this time of year for some-but remember to stop and smell the roses too, I figure I'll have plenty of time to rest someday in a box somewhere)
BTW, A significant portion of my tomatoes are slated for BLT suppers. 🥓🍅🥪 I highly recommend this simple meal.
With over 3 weeks of vacation I need to burn before the end of the year, sneaking away to fish next week after this cold front settles down is almost mandatory.

I'm looking forward to some cooler days, I've had the windows open in the mornings here in Chester County the last couple days.
At the end of September I'll be off of work for two weeks and have two back to back trips planned, one to Maine to fish, and another to Wyoming to go see the Grand Tetons. Then right back in the groove of PA fall fishing.

Cooler weather on tap next week here in PA, with overnight lows in the high 40s to low 50s and daytime highs in the high 60s low 70s. Dew Points in the low 40s will help make it feel like fall.
That should make the smallmouth bass in some rivers start to get more active, and perhaps some walleye will move out of the deep. The trout might be too smart, knowing that the heat will return again before real fall.

Yes
Definitely looking forward to cooler weather.
IMO, everything is better when it’s not 90 and humid as heck. I like the other three seasons WAY better. Waiting for the first cool nite to fire up the wood stove in the LR.

I'm happy to see some Wilco, Dead, and King Crimson fans on here! Some of my favorite bands.

Big Wilco fan here. Have seen them multiple times.
I love the fall for many reasons but the feel is one of the best reasons. I've been early morning and late evening fishing terrestrial when the water is cool enough and the trout are still hitting.

Agree. I especially love looking at the Fall colors, it's some of the Lord's most beautiful work. The Fall also ushers in the rut, when whitetails are most active. Can't wait!

I used to love Wilco, and I listened to them a lot through all of their albums up until about Wilco's self titled album. That was the last one I cared about or listened to. I still listen to their old back catalogue from time to time.
They were pure gold from their debut all the way through Sky Blue Sky. The self-titled was okay. I don't really know anything they've released after that.

We are on the same page there. Sky Blue Sky is a complete masterpiece in my opinion. One of those albums that defined the period of life I was in at the time. Everything runs it's course though.
When I return to Wilco, I listen to Sky Blue Sky more than any other, but Summerteeth will always be my favorite.
Have you guys ever noticed that grocery stores play obscure music most shoppers don't know? Just today, I stopped at Lewistown Giant, and Wilco's "Can't Stand It" was playing. I was jamming as I grabbed my supper food.

Exactly.... because theologians.... They don't know nothing about my soul.....
Having fished streamers since 2002 primarily on the WB I use only three streamers. All Clousers in sizes #4 - #1/0. If you consistently want big browns use big flies. All my really big browns, over 22", have been caught on at least a #1 if not bigger. It won't be as much fun if I tell you the colors I use. Experiment.
