Memories Of Ryan's Lake

It has been a while since I attempted to put pen to paper. My heart has not been in it. Writing has always been a passion of mine and so it was with my daughter Brandi. We shared this love of writing and we loved Ryan's Lake Hunting Club. We made many a trip up and down the banks of Cedar Creek and the Neches River. We lost many a hook, caught many a fish, and loved every minute of it. Between Brandi, her Mom Cindi, and Big John McGuire I have had to defend myself from vicious rumors and false stories. I never took anyone's fishing spot and I never kicked a stringer of fish into the river.

I will write this blog in Brandi's honor as it is the desire and passion for writing that we both shared that is bringing me back to this old stomping ground.

I began writing a story about three years ago while I was camping out in David Scarborough's club house. He has a beautiful club house, just off the banks of the Neches and we have shared a lot of stories in those walls.

Thanks for bringing me back Brandi, Fish On!
