It came with the marriage

March 1, 2010

Tony and Ruth Harris, and Tony’s grandfather, James Pippin, are wrapping it up. Between them, they have 10 rainbows, shimmering in their baskets. Tony, 27, grew up near here, fishing Roaring River as long as he can remember. It’s a family tradition. When he married Ruth several years ago, she had to join, too. No question.

“It came with the marriage,” she said.

The couple now live near Bolivar, but bypassed the much closer Bennett Springs State Park with its trout for Roaring River.

“I think it is more beautiful here,” Ruth said.
