OCTOBER

  Rolling into October.  Friday after school Beau brought my fishing gear out to Rolliworld, where Beau, Marty and I caught up on the weeks events before we wet a line on the trout stream.  Poles were set up with the trouts choice mepps, rooster tails or seahorse.  An hour later and no fish so after a quick chat with mr. Rolli him self,  Steve. We busted out by way of the top of the world, off road with Beau's Jimmy in 4 wheel drive.


   On to the next stream a valley over toward Marty's.  As the sun was setting we got to a nice hole where we picked up 4 nice rainbows.  Cleaned  fresh from the stream and them Beau whipped up a marinade from  Big Jim's Game Warden Cookbook.









 We let that marinade Saturday while we were in back in Madison  for the Badger and Husker welcome to the Big Ten  ball game.  Saturday we hit the road for the only place in town that wasn't full or on price line.  The Bates motel or just  as creepy.

Here's a shot of one of the broken down, cigerette  burnt chairs  and Susie in the parking lot with three cop cars.








Great weather for the ball game as we hung with the Platteville crowd at a choice location across the street from Camp Randal Stadium.  P-Ville crowd has been tailgating at this site since the mid 70's.  Sue and I first took Beau to a tailgater 20 years ago when he was just a few months old.
