Ahh yes, there are some that have those higher chairs with the fold up seat cushion for stand up. I bet though you don't go offshore any more either. I can't take the pounding. Brother has had 2 neck surgeries. I don't see how he functions take 2-3 dozes of morphine a day, plus 2 tabs of other pain meds or more depending on his pain level. Speaking of bank fishing, there's a wheelchair on steriods that's on tracks. Allows guys to go hunting and such but its about 15 grand. Wounded Warrior helps some veterans with no limbs get one from what I've seen on some sporting TV show. I've given up the thoughts of bank fishing unless its pretty level with no holes. If I fall, I've got to have something to pull myself up with, no strength in the legs as it gets worse each year (stroke in 98). I use to have access to a couple of fish ponds, but the in-laws have modified their fencing (barb wire, etc) to where I can access them anymore so I quit going. Right now with the mods to my boat, I think I can manage pretty good. For places with no dock, I use a 3 step ladder, get in, pull the little ladder in with me, fold it up, strap it to the back deck and off I go. Get back, same thing. Its easier once I get the boat on the trailer as I can then ease myself down that trailer ladder. I get a little conscious about it though when I notice an audience watching me

That reminds me, I need to get a Louisville slugger baseball bat. Don't want no little tapper for the sharks. Hate sharks, they scare the peewhattie outta me when I catch one. Course I usually just cut the line.
I use to live in Lafayette. I worked narcotics from New Orleans to Houston back in the early 80's but I flew all over the States. Mostly FL, TX, MS, LA, the Dakota's, NM, AL and only a couple times to CA, Neb, OK. I practically stayed in TX/OK/NM but I managed to get home once or twice a week. Dog would be wore out from traveling. Best yellow lab I ever had.
