One evening I was awaken from a deep sleep from this weird noise
 coming from my husband, only to find out he was dreaming 
and he was a Dry Fly.
 I suspected then, and now realize, his dreams are not made up of
wild crazy women, only episodes of his days of being in the stream.
Could this be some sort of DESEASE!

     The peace is in doing and not thinking so much.
