Hollywood is intrigued by the power and pageantry of the American Presidency, and has created some memorable characters to occupy movie-set White Houses.

For the last 20 or so years I have visited the Lower Klamath River as regularly as the salmon themselves. Each fall, during the month of September, I would take the boat and the camper up to a crowded campground.

I would launch the boat in the dark along with 50 or more other boats and make my way up stream while waiting in lineups to fish along the way. The scar of both tribal commercial and subsistence netting was visible the entire way. Several years back my wife declined to accompany me citing these and other detractions.
