Something Runs Through it

This reel I see everyday on my arm. An artist drew a rendition of it on my arm in Missoula, MT - a town with a river running through it. Many rivers have run through this reel and any reel for that matter. Rivers seem to be an appropriate metaphor for something, but something about this reel stands out. A reel kept in the top drawer of an old armoire turned fishing cabinet in the garage.
