Took 30 minutes on McDs wifi to upload that single pic. Once I get better service I can post fish pics!

I like it when I sense that someone is happy. Congratulations on your move, the job, your 40 and most of all your new home. .....oh, and the fishing

Nice fish!!

I'd say, "Enjoy!!". But, it would be redundant...

Nothing like a clear, cold river with trout.

Congrats on your move! Going by the pics posted Danny is right, enjoy is definitely redundant. The pic of the river makes me think a bit of the Metolius River here in Oregon. The Metolius runs from south to north for about half of it's 29 miles, with Green Ridge on the east side before gradually turning east and dumping into Lake Billy Chinook. The upper Metolius has more trees, but is fly fishing equipment only, catch and release with barbless hooks, for about the first 12 miles. If you can't tell, the Metolius area is a favorite of mine, so those pics definitely show an area that I'm sure I would like also.

I followed a sweet looking 40 down 93 past Hamilton last week, it looked to be a 74, green like mine is now, but it looked like he just drove it off the dealer lot. Sorry no pics, but I'm sure I will see it again.

East Fork Bitterroot River.

I have lucked out with a place to stay for a while, I have my 40 parked right next to my camper which allows me to wrench whenever I am not at work. I have managed to get the wiring nearly complete over the last few days, all the splices I have made were soldered and covered with adhesive lined heat shrink. All of my lights are operational now, ignition system is complete, just lacking a couple of lights on the inside, the fuel tank sender, and to rework the alternator wiring.

All while I get to enjoy the views.

I also found a decent 75 for sale, $1000. Needs the typical 40 rust repairs. Looks to be all intact, I am going to work on getting the fuel tank and rims...........

Valid point, I suppose I could leave mine here, too.
