Hi, everyone I used to know. I haven't tapped into this forum in so long that my original name of just Peter had gone off the radar screen, I guess. Had a quick email from Carpy sometime back suggesting I climb back aboard, so here I am.
Looking at the photo of the bash, it appears that almost everyone in CA, fisher or no, showed up for it. Must have been a bash indeed.
And so sorry to hear about Dave Brown. I never knew him well, but he was such a gentleman.
Since I last posted we sold the property with the vineyard on it and moved 250 yards up the hill to build and move into a new house, one that had been circulating in my wife's system for years. Here was her opportunity to get it out into the open, and she did a superb design.
I also hung up my professional forester's license, and am now fully retired. You'd think I'd be doing a lot of fishing, but I just haven't got around to it. When you hit 86 you suddenly find that currents are stronger, rocks bigger, slipperier, and all too willing to trip you up.
The pond is still there for children - even those big but child-like - and I have permission to let people go after the bluegill and bass if they want. Just give me a heads up. I guess JET and Joey have finally outgrown the place they fished so avidly for so many seasons.
