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!" |

Yeah, it won't be too long before I have to stock up on Mountain Dew, Pixie Sticks and Hershey's Chocolate. Get the kid all wired and then send her home. :-) So how's it feel to be a grandpa?

As far as being married to a grandma, she's a pretty sexy grandma. :-) -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |
