LOUDOUN COUNTY FISHING AT FRANKLIN PARK, OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL.
It was a lovely day yesterday, perfect for floating a small fly on the lake at Franklin Park.
Bring the family and enjoy the many attractions at Franklin Park in Purcellville, Virginia, Loudoun County's wonderful park with many outdoor attractions including:

Lenn,
What a lovely spot for a lazy August afternoon. I personally have never been lucky enough to catch a fish, but I have tried! This sounds like a fun place to go and another great promotion for your lovely region.
Just gorgeous Lenn. I have never said so, but I love your maps, too. Your posts always have such a nice presentation.
Marcy. Shucks. If you ever get in my neighborhood, come on over and I'll take you fishing.
Christianne. Thanks. I love posting about my area. It's offer so much and I enjoy every square mile of it.
Love the hat Lenn! I didn't know there could be so many species of fish in one pond. We don't have near that variety available. Around here, you are lucky to see only a couple of different types.
Lenn, I didn't know you had enough time to go fishing! Also, I would have thought your laptop would have been by your side to blog from. :-)
Leslie. Most ponds in the area have at least bluegill and bass. If they have deep enough water, crappie.
Gabe. Shucks. I have no problem leaving my computer at home when I'm shooting photos or having a bit of fun. I have no interest in being "plugged in".
Good to know Lenn, I thought you were always wired. (I have to confess that I can't go a day without logging in - dis that a computeaholic?)
Gabe. Goodness, I'm on my computer every day, many hours a day, but when I go out, I'm not wired. I see agents with things in their ears, holding their phone whereever they go. Not me. I focus on what's at hand and sometimes that means not being wired.
