Rope-buggers and..., Sorry to take so long getting an update posted. I have two sets received so far. Just got finished re-doing my new fly room and so I am busy trashing it trying to get ready for the show in Boise this week-end. The whole house-moving was a ton of work. Did it all ourselves.
I really regret buying a home now without a shop already built. Have one in planning, but moving out of a 1600 square foot shop without a shop to move to has been a real challenge. Paying an armandaleg for storage. Rope-dub bugger swap list – 12 tiers: 1. Don Ordes – In progress 2. Rene Zillmann 3. Wayne Blake-Hedges 4. Allan Fish 5. Rick Zieger - RECEIVED 6. Peggy Brenner 7. Bob Hendry 8. Neville Gosling - RECEIVED 9. Pete Gramp 10. Jack Hartford – IN TRANSIT 11. Jay Balmer 12. Mike Bliss – IN TRANSIT When I get my new fly room straightened up again after the show this weekend, I’ll post a photo of it for a new ‘swap the mess’ photo-pool. These were fun in the past and gave me ideas how to organize portions of my junk. I have the biggest fly-room I’ve had so far, and it’s still not big enough for retirement. I really miss my old home (with the swimming pool in the video), but I will have more time to fish all the great water around the Boise/Nampa area. The new home has a big garden area, so a greenhouse is on order. Have to have my veggies for my Cajun and Indian curry cooking. Thanks for worrying about me, too. I’m still battling high blood sugar, but feel very healthy. Down from 300# to 220# and still dropping, so that part is great. (Having no clothes that fit is the downside. Even need new waders. No kidding. My suits look like the young Tom Hanks in BIG when he changed back.) I’m off blood-pressure meds and getting readings of high-teens and 20s / 70s and 80’s, so I’m good with that. What’s working? Not eating out, not over-eating, low sugar/carb (but some ok), no milk, cardio exercise (need more now that we’re moved in). I‘m planning to pump iron again, too. Enough about me, how are you VFBers doing? Is it roll-call time again? How many IOFFers are left?

My flies should be there soon too. Mike On Wed, Jan 10, 2018 at 11:38 AM, Neville Gosling <[email protected]> wrote: That’s good. I was thinking possibly something was wrong. I guess he has other things on his hands right now! I am sure we will hear from him in good time. PS great Video.

The caster in the video is the much-smaller-than-he-used-to-be DonO himself. af Mr. Fish, Thought you might like to see this new video. Any rope-dubbing questions yet?
