Thanks for the post Marke,...it's nice to know you've got my back!!..LOL And you're exactly right,...I have been extremely busy getting stuff done for A-P so they can get samples made, and sent to me for approval.....with Xmas coming up fast and the lead time req'd to get stuff made,..it's been a very very busy summer for me so far. No time to fish,...but that's the way it goes in this business sometimes. I know in a couple years, I'll have the opportunities and the re$ource$ to fish anywhere I want for as long as i want, so the sacrifices now,..are worth it! We've got a LOT of stuff coming out this fall/winter and even more in the 1st Qtr of '04.....I've got a couple more HUGE announcements to lay on ya'll in a few days, but just when you thought it couldn't get any better,...SUURPPRIISE!!
LOL..I was up north this weekend to a family reunion on my wife's side, but I did get to fish this a.m. for 4 hrs on Duck Lk. in Interlochen. Caught a few small fish but nothing to get excited over,....it was good to get out after spending 2 days with a bunch of people I hardly know!!
Her family is far and wide and we converge once every 2 years. I missed the last one, so a lot of those folks I haven't seen in 4-5 years!! I did have a beer with her 95yr old Grandmother though,....talk about spry!! I asked her if she was glad to see everyone,...and she said,.."Well..I guess so,...I'd rather go gambling but since I'm responsible for all these people even being here,..I gotta be here too!!"....Now THERE's a woman who speaks the TRUTH!!!! LOL!! Anyway,...I won't be posting much over the next few weeks either...as Mock said,..back to work tomorrow after 2 weeks off and a bunch more stuff to get done for A-P and other people whom I owe things!! I apologize for the delay's,...I haven't forgotten,....have just had to make a HUGE shift in priorities and these things happen. I'll keep ya posted!! Regards to everyone!
