Melinda's shop is indeed still open and apparently doing just fine. In fact,
on the first day Dave P. discovered his ancient, well-creased waders were
springing multiple unfixable leaks and picked up a new pair of Dan Bailey's
for fairly cheap money (discontinued model) there, and I replaced a rotting
pair of gaitors as well.

She's also a willing and eager co-conspirator: Paul and I pulled our favorite
prank and told her that Dave was keeping all the steelies he caught, upon
which she gave him a haranguing while threatening him with a rod tube. Poor
bastid didn't know wtf was happening. Great fun! :-)
