Hey Folks!
I have not been able to fish much at all this year because of work and some major changes for the family. Thought I would let you know I am still alive and kicking and let you know what all has been happenign this year with Dana and I.
My oldest son Jimmy and his wife Becca recently moved back in with Dana and I so they can get themselves caught up financially and save up to try to get into a house. Over the last month or so we remodeled our upstairs room for them that I had added on to the house 20 years ago and we just got them moved ina couple weeks back. I think they are enjoying their little hideaway upstairs with a sitting area and TV to watch as well.
Next, just this last Monday my daughter Jennifer made Dana and I grandparents for the first time
! Aaron Joshua Reeves, 8 lbs 5 oz, a healthy baby boy and Mother and Son are both doing just fine. Wow, hard to believe we are now actually grandparents. Where did the last 30 years of marriage and having 3 kids around all the time go ?! With retirement around the corner I hope to spend a lot of time with him as he grows up.
And then there is work, Geeze, it is killing me this year. Boy I am glad next year is my retirement target
!
Here are a couple pictures of both family events. I really plan to get out and do some fishing this fall!
Best Wishes and tight lines to all!
