It would not be all that hard for you to get a Visa to visit Cuba
legally since you've had a magazine article or two printed IIRC. I got
permission just to go along with a writer in the early days of the
administration. If the travel and spending ban for the average Joe
ever gets rescinded, the BASS guys are going to go nuts.


apparently, there are ways to get there legally and fish. wally, mark,
and i know a fella in morganton that goes there regularly.


I cannot believe that you have revealed the LEADERS location! I suspect that
Jason Bourne is likely on his way to take you out. So much for the April/May
fishin' excursion :~^ (

Btw, stopped in to see Greg the other day. He is stayin' in NC for the
Winter. He plans to turn the campground into a luxury trailer park? He is
also interested in installing a hydoelectric dam and wants me to get him
info similar to what you had asked about. Did you ever contact Dr. Brian W.
Raichle at the Dept. of Technology? If you have lost the info on him I will
resend it to you.

As usual Greg's plan is quite grand, but I'll believe it when I see it, as I
haven't seen him do a great deal towards his other plans of the past.
Personally, I hope he leaves the campgrounds as they are, and simply build
more cabins an open up a few more motorcoach sites. The way he talks, the
lodge, Wayno's cabin, the shower house and other buildings will be raised to
make room for a large number of motorcoach hook-ups.

I stopped by Wally's store the other day and cashed in my credit for that
POS William-Joseph's chestpack that fell apart
on our last outing. I ended up spending another $150 on a neat western NC
fly fishin' book and a Fishpond chest and backpack. I like this rig much
more so that the W-J POS. This set-up doesn't make me look like I have to
sagging square tits hangin' off of me! Used my credit to by my brother some
Woolrich merchandise (Birthday ****), which naturally turned out to be to
small for him. So I had to spend another $100 buyin' him some ASU clothing
and I get to wear the Woolrich stuff :~^ )

Wally and I met at Greg's place the other day, and I got to watch him drink
half of the gift I had brought of Greg--Greg wasn't there. OBROFF--brought
along fishin' gear, but never wet a line.

Op


also, years ago when i was in jamaica one of the resorts offered special
tours to veradero (?) beach that a lot of americans took to see havana and
partake of "stuff" cuba offered at very low prices.
