It would be nice if you could come and get them at the Sowbug. Still trying to get you here. Will send them in a couple of weeks. Tony

We did not get to fish but we became instant friends. Larry drove me to where I wanted to go to look at a lathe and got me back to the show. I also met Tom Davenport, Tom was my chauffeur to and from the airport. Also took the time to show me the area. Offered to take me fishing but we did not get the time to do it. Met Mike Bliss too at the show. I also met the sweetheart Joyce, she is one real lady. I did the show there for three years and we all became close friends. Thanks to all of you for sharing your friendship with me. Larry, that first year was 1998.

I "stumbled" onto the VFB by accident quite a few years ago. I arranged to meet Tony in Salt Lake City, when he was at the Outdoor Show as a tier for Gudebrod. Tony: What year was that? I have been to the Sowbug three times. Last year I tried to take pictures of as many VFB members as I could find. I feel that I have become a better tier because of the VFB and by participating in swaps. As many as I could, at first. When I saw the quality of work out there it "inspired" me to tie better, especially dry flies, which is my first choice to fish with. I hope to come back to the Sowbug again. I hope to fish with DonO some time. I have fished with Tom Davenport several times. I have met with and tied with Joyce Wesphal. What a great tier and teacher she is. Another former VFB list member Karl Barton and his wife, Marcia< had Allan and Martha Fish come to Utah, and went to dinner with them. I have informed the University that I will formally terminate my employment there in June of this coming summer, after which I hope to travel to see more of the great state of Utah, and fish more of it. If I wear my Honda 4-wheeler out, I will probably buy another. I cannot imagine a greater collection of terrific people with so much in common as the VFB. There is a fly tying/fishing group here in Utah called "Utah on the Fly", but I find them quite unresponsive and uncaring about their prospective members. Long Live the VFB !!!!!
