Pete: Sorry to hear that. I’ll keep you in my thoughts and prayers for a good
outcome and you do the same for me. IF I ever find out what is ailin’ me. Hang
in there. I know there are a million types of brain tumors, but my fav Uncle
had one removed over 30 years ago, just celebrated his 70th birthday last week
and is still doing great. Chuck

Subject: Re: [VFB] Roll call and winter fly-swap interest??
I'm still here. Have a cranial mass lesion in left occipital lobe, 6.5mm, aka
brain tumor. still doing the "every 6 weeks MRI with contrast and perfusion"
routine. As long as it doesn't grow, all is well; if it does grow, I'll be in
the operating room for cranial neurosurgery within a week (or so they say). So
other than that, life is good. Tie on the weekends when not working.
I'm game for a swap if 12 or fewer flies, and if no PB is needed. I have some
Ice Dub and could tie up some "Josh's White Lightnings" nymphs in either purple
or orange (prefer purple - caught a 13-14" brookie and an 18" rainbow on it
this pattern this late september / early october). Let me know when due, how
many flies, and where to send. I don't do well with hosting, but if someone
else (you?) are hosting, I'll gladly participate.

I am still working at BYU Hawaii in Laie, HI. But next year probably end of
May will retire. We bought a home in Utah and will move back. I hope I can
re-acclimate to the cold after all this time. We want to be back around
family. I am okay on health for now. Hope to see some of you at least after
moving back. Maybe a VFB conclave on the Green River?
I need an excuse to tie so I would join the swap. I have no polar bear but
could sub something (snowshoe or arctic fox). I have plenty of ice dubbing.

VFB Roll Call... Who’s still here?
And let us know how you are doing if you feel like it.
I’ll start. Got my diabetes on the run. Off insulin now (un-officially)
and my BG readings are still all normal. Exercise and diet have been the key
for me. Up to a mile on the treadmill now- walking, jogging, and wind-sprinting
up to 6 mph so far with incline. Two months ago a 5 min. 2 mph level walk
pooped me out. My BP is now normal after the workout and after the cool-down.
Have lost 45 pounds so far (less of me to love). Who-hoo!
Anyone interested in fly swaps now that winter is here? Something with
ice-dubbing? or polar bear?
