Hey Tony:
It is good to see your status quo even if it is not the status that you would prefer. Getting old is no fun but I haven’t found a way to beat it yet. So much for the “Golden Years”. Both you and Don have experienced severe health problems. Don’s situation is particularly unfortunate as he is younger than both you and I. Talking of fingers stiffening up, I am waiting to see a specialist for “Trigger finger” which is a repeat of the same condition I had 10 or so years ago and I know what it is like to have stiff fingers. I admire you for trying to build a 1 weight rod - that must be more of a challenge than a 5 weight. I am glad that both you and your daughter’s family were reunited briefly with the plane that you built 59 years ago. Please continue to paste to the list as and when you can because we are all concerned for you and want to know how you are doing. You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Not doing much. Last Saturday I got a ride to the Branson show. I was able to tie a few Chili Peppers. That is the most I have tied in almost three years. Fingers stiffen up and freeze up that way for several minuets. This makes it hard trying to tie. I have been trying to get a 1 WT rod made for a friend. Started it over 6 months ago. I might get it done in a couple of months, Dot insists I have a "baby sitter" when I go downstairs. hard to just snap my fingers to get one when I can work. When I can work it is only or an hour as the pain in my stump gets to more than I can handle. Enough of my griping, I really miss not being active on the list. Not fly related, The owner of my plane I designed and built 59 years ago flew up from Kentucky to visit with us two weeks ago. This was while my daughters family were here. They had never seen my plane. My daughter was just 3 when it was sold due to my heart attack. I had not seen my baby in about 30 years. Last time I saw her is when I did a show in SLC. I loved seeing her again. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
