The Confluence: A Collection of Essays, Art & Tall Tales about Fly-fishing and Friendship
THE BOYS OF THE GRANT
David A. Van Wie, L. Philip Odence, Norman Richter, Robert Chamberlin Edwin Baldrige III, William B. Conway, Jr, David Klinges
The Boys are all members of the fabled Dartmouth College Class of 1979.
For three days, college buddies share close quarters in a remote cabin with few amenities. The main draw is the precious opportunity to get out into the wilderness, away from phones, email and modern life to go fly-fishing for wild brook trout. It is also an opportunity for good friends to share their individual passions for life: conversation, cooking, beer, wine, art, politics, music and more. It is a chance to catch up on families, careers, hopes and dreams before charging back into the outside world until the following June.
