Location: WI | The PMTT kurfluffle over livescope earlier in the year inspired Santa to finally update the electronics in my boat. Didn’t get me livescope but I’m not sure I qualify as a fisherman with the sidevu and clearvu he got me.

Location: Brighton CO. | Well I don't have any kids my sisters kids don't have kids so we are running out of young people in our family so we haven't had a gift exchange in almost 20 years, however the house decked out and my nephew is a trained Chef so we eat well and we also live close together and we see each other a lot this time of year. We all have too much stuff so nothing but good times!
My tackle boxes are filled with tackle from many Christmas past and my late fathers past too. I've spent the last three day's replacing burnt out bulb's and I'm not done yet! |

| Santa knows. Last year he apparently went in the fishing room while I was sleeping because all I got was a box with a note that said "holy #*#*, man!" and in my stocking there was a phone number for something called lure addicts anonymous... |

Location: Brighton CO. | Almost forgot about this, 25 years ago we would jump in the car and take the 160 mile (each way) trip to Sidney Nebraska to get gear and use our credit card points and we would stop at same restaurant, we did few years in a row. Now there are 2 Cabela's in Denver area and our old restaurant is something else. I finally got all the decorations working and Jay I should have asked you if you had a Green flood light the one I had on my outside decorations bunt out and I had to go to six stores to find one. |
