Fishing Trip

Phil is a lucky guy.  He gets to work with some pretty amazing people.  One of the Physical Medicine residents at the University of Utah is a river guide specializing in Tenkara fly fishing.  It's a technique that requires only one hand to do.  So he approached Phil about the possibility of taking a group of amputees out for an evening of fishing.  Most of these folks haven't fished since the accidents/infections that lead to their limb loss, so to get them back out on the water was a pretty big deal.  It was a beautiful evening and they even managed to catch a fish or two. 














He had such a good time, that Phil didn't even mind the clean up



Though some of the neighbors did ask questions the next morning...
