Let the spoiling begin!!!
Well, it finally happened. With five kids over the age of 17, four of them
girls, it was bound to happen. Late last night, my daughter Katie and my son-in-law Hans presented me with my first grandchild! Margrit Katherine Breitenmoser (6 lb. 8 oz., don't know the length) came into this world. Well over a year ago, while at the St. Croix factory, I found a marvelous ultralight blank, slightly over 4' long. I bought it, planning on building a rod for my first grandkid. Now, I have to get some pink thread to wrap the guides! :-) I've already bought camo baby clothes and a presentation grade, break action side by side popgun is on order. This is going to be sooooooo much fun! So, I guess you guys can call me Grandpa. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

That's gonna be one lucky girl. So how's it feel to be a grandpa? I heard that asked of one old coot who had a great answer I'll clean up for the forum: "You know, it really feels pretty good. The only downside I've found is I have to be married to a grandma!" |

Congrats Steve,
I have 2 right now and 2 more on the way(July and Feb). The 2 year old girl LOVES to play in the boat. When she was a baby she would sit with me watching fishing shows in the winter and we both got good naps. Joe Z. "Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers" wrote in message ... Well, it finally happened.

I've got a grandson that just turned four. Can't wait to get him started
fishing. I really do believe that if all kids learned to fish, especially when they are very young, they wouldn't have so much trouble later on in life. Enjoy your new addition! Netguider |

"Jerry Barton (NervisRek)" wrote in message ... What a picture that would make on ABPF . When Janet and I got ready to leave to go see Katie and Maggie, I ran to the boat and got the keeper board. She asked me what I was going to do with that and I mistakenly told her. The "LOOK" that I received at that point told me that if the board came into the truck, I just might be sleeping on the couch tonight. Then, to make matters worse, I got to the hospital and the batteries were dead in my camera! Oh well, I suppose that there'll be other opportunities to take pictures. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

To all that replied to my joyous news, thank you for your kinds words and

Yeah... but you haven't guided MY 5 year old. LOL
Actually, the kid did very well on our trip last weekend. I helped him with his first couple of fish, then he decided that he could do it on his own. I spent alot of time baiting hooks and removing fish... hopefully he picked up a good sport.
