Hey, Murf: I was reading in a catalog yesterday about opportunities in the log home business. This would certainly appeal to me. I would have my "model" log home built on prime real estate somewhere on the banks of a fine trout stream, and use the home/cabin also as an office. I can see it happening..................
Larry Johnson Springville, Utah >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/13/04 05:57PM >>> Friends, Forgive this off-topic post but I'll tie in the flyfishing and tying at the end. After 29 very successful years in the same business, (3 sales management followed by 26 sales), I've resigned to look for a new career or business opportunity. My heart yearns for new challenge and I'm asking for advice you would be willing to share off list. I know there is a diverse and deep knowledge pool within you all and I'd be very grateful for any insight of any kind. My quandary is whether to follow my interest in mentoring sales people as a consultant or manager, start my own business or think outside the box. You good folks have a wealth of knowledge and I'd be thankful for any suggestions or ideas. Especially of interest is what YOU do, have done and why. Flyfishing & tying content: Since resigning, I have not fished or tied at all. This hobby is my favorite form of relaxation and as winter approaches, the list(s) is my sole "tie" to it. I've dropped everything (including a fly swap I was in) to focus on my search. Oh! I did take a former client flyfishing the week after resigning and caught a fair number on a creek I enjoy. As a gesture of gratitude for responding to me, I will "share back" with some flys I have found incredibly good which may not be in your fly box yet. I'll let you choose which pattern and email you the rest of my recipes for "Murf's favorite few" flys. At the least, you'll have a personal thank you from me and something from my vice. I'll tie these individually for each of you and think of you as I tie so you know these come from the heart. (Give me a little time if I get a lot of responses) I trust no one is offended by this post and offer my deepest apologies if you are. Thank you for taking a minute to consider my request and now back to FLY FISHING & TYING! Sincerely, Dave "Murf" Murphy
