Murf,

still in my files.

Mark,
I think Ray just wants some personal reminders of his friends here at the 
VFB.  Some nice folks are sending me "kits" with the real thing and I'll 
tie a few versions for Ray.  When I took some jpegs of my fly boxes the 
other day, I quickly saw a few of "Grey Ghost's" gifts to me from years 
back.

Another guy I have an old debt to is Wally Lutz who sent me a bunch (a 
dozen or so from #14 to #22 maybe) of exceptional Wally Wings long ago.  
Sad and embarrassing that I have the several year old padded envelope 
labeled but threw the first few batches of my promised pattern into the 
bulk bin for fishing by me since his ties were much better than mine.  
Sometimes I get intimidated by the talent here but I will never forget my 
promise to send them Wally.

Sadder still is my Linda Foote's Polliwog story.  Linda sent it (extras 
actually) in a swap and is gone from us now but the fly still reminds me 
of her (I have one left that was never fished).  She got one of mine in 
the swap but it reminds my of some of the personal gifts from past friends 
like Poul J., Gary L., who are gone as well.  Funny thing is that I value 
the flys from many of the lessor knowns every bit as well.  Gosh I've met 
some fine people.  Byard, Tony, Hans, dances, Henk...must stop this list 
as it will put the VFB into overload.  You know who you all are.
