I haven't been here for a while, and haven't really been fishing in
about 3 years, but I'm thinking about changing one of those things.

After the physical beating I took a few years ago I've been fighting
my way back to health, and took some time off from leisure time to
finish my BS in math and physics (I dropped out in 1976 with six
liberal arts courses to go - and now, 35 years later, I don't feel
more "educated", just more "credentialed"). Hanging around with a
bunch of young college students was a lot of fun though and I'm
thinking about keeping my student ID valid.

I've also taken the time to become more educated on the goodness of
beer and fine bourbons. I've been liking Taras Boulba in the first
category and Buffalo Trace in the second, but tastes and times vary,
and should.

My fly tying stuff is all stored away - I have more flies that I can
shake a stick at (so to speak).

Planning ahead - some friends were chatting about a recent striper and
blues expedition to Martha's Vineyard, and that reminded me of the
first (alnd last) time I tried that in Chatham a few years back - do
Gary or Greg ever show up here any more? Anyways, for the New English
types, I'm talking to friends about planning an early fall trip to the
Buzzards Bay area - many people have recomended canoe/kayak fishing in
Buttermilk Bay - paddlig around, watching the birds for bait fish
clues. The weekend I'm thinking of coincides with a Trout Unlimited
event at Redbrook (good food, good raffles, great cause - supporting
one of the last sea run brook trout streams in New England).

How 'bout them Celtics, eh?


Oh, man...did they get caught cheating, too...?

Good to hear from you and glad things are looking up,

That's ok, Stan. No one else has either.

Glad to hear you are on the mend.

Go fishing.

And, be well.

We do a Catskills trip the first weekend of June in Roscoe if you want

I know about that, and every year I talk to Jimmy about taking you up
on some hospitality. Did you go last month?

Nah, tough health year. I was in a brace from a broken clavicle, and
wasn't up for lugging gear. Lost a car in the process, which was replaced
two weeks after I could test drive again.

Hey, whattaya say. You've prompted me to pop my head up again as
well. Like you, I ain't been around much lately, though thankfully
health is not one of my reasons. Glad to hear things have been
looking up a bit for you.
