To keep this country great, this is the day we thank you.
And, a special thanks to all who earn a living or part of one as a fishing guide. Your patience and instruction keeps our sport vital. m

It's been a long hot summer this year, I'll be happy when it cools off. When I think of labor day I think of my late dad who after this four years in the Air Force got to work for the same company for 34 years was never laid off intel they paid him tons money not to work when he was late 50's. He was a Electrical Engineer in the space/defense industry loved designing things to take out the Communist (or Commies) I worked for the same company for almost seven years before I got laid off. Wished I could have been a lifer. I retired early due to a on the job head injury. I take care of my mom and our house. After I get everything done for the summer I'll go back to my home schooling, Beefing up my math skills, writing skills, computer/phone skills and I'm teaching my self some Electronics and Chemistry. Down the road find a part time job doing research. (where I can come and go as I feel like it and make a few bucks) Work hard so you can take your family on fishing trips and have all the great stories that go with it.

Hey man I appreciate that! Little did I know after dawning this T today that was bought for me at a bar at a work Xmas party-my day was gunna consist of the debauchery sh** storm it became. PUSH had roads closed and poorly detoured routes in a secluded area with no cell service. Local landing maps were aged and bled out,tavern workers didn't even know where they themselves were, PUSH Crew didn't know, so I just guessed. Ended up finding the site. Just to begin with what I call "trying to mix a marriage with flint and steel" of a jobsite.

Amen, I got something very similar added to the "quotes" a little while back.
