Not a complaint, just an FYI for those that know me...hey, I'm still on
the right side of the grass! Spring bluegill fishing was fine in my local
lake, it always is until about late June and later until the weather
cools down in the fall. Went in for a routine eye exam for new glasses
last month and discovered big-assed cataracts in both eyes, the last
surgery was performed about two weeks ago and I now no longer need
glasses for distance vision. I wasn't aware that part of the surgery was
to implant intraocular lenses to correct for distance vision, nice
surprise there! Will get examined for reading glasses in another week or
so. Going in Monday for more shoulder surgery, arthroscopy this time on
my casting shoulder, as it is now I can't cast anything heavier than a 2
or 3 wt for more than an hour or so. Still hoping to make it to Maine in
Sept if the surgery is successful, gonna try for smallmouth on the
Androscoggin if I'm lucky. As usual Dave Bottom (brooktrout) will be my
guide. (I haven't forgotten you Louie, will let you know the dates in
Maine, probably right after Labor Day, depends on Dave's schedule)

Hey Dad! Work your ass off on that PT after the shoulder surgery. It
worked great for me. Good luck getting out to Maine.

your "sources?")
