OK guys,

Long story short. I thought I was going to be off Friday and its a long drive down there for one day of fishing. :angry: Then to top it off at 4:30am I was going to come down anyway and leave about 2:30pm to head home. I load up and hit the ignition key and get the dreaded click-click-click :unsure: . I thought dead battery. The thing is 5.5 years old so its probably time for a new one. So, I go back to bed and get back up at 8:30am to try to go find a battery. I go to take out the battery and notice that there is a little corrosion on the cables. Clean off cables and truck starts fine now. So after work tomorrow I'll get a new battery anyway so it don't happen again.

I was really looking foward to making it this year after last years freeze out. Too bad we gotta wait another year for one of these get togethers. I will never make plans again to be there. If I show up then you know I'll be coming.

OK guys,

Long story short..... (just livin up to that screen name)

Sorry to poke but your previous post said that you would explain after you were calm so hopefully no secondary pangs from fishing withdraws.

That sucks man when you get another chance to get away. Let me know if you will need help remembering how many long distance releasees you had. poke #2

Rich really seemed to need this trip all. Think that we should plan on a get together in the summer down at Taney so he shouldn't have to wait so long? And I could fish at night for once with out body parts still tingling when I get home. thoughts

The tips of the two outer fingers on my line hand. for you with the mind in the gutter. (tries to avoid poke)

Hey JJ,

I guess I live up to my screen name too much to speak of. Thats the price you pay sometimes. Here I though that I was going to get some free time to fish and hunt and now I work more. I need the extra money anyway but, I sure had hoped to be there today. I do believe that I will be short of work here before too much longer. The boss says that jobs are coming but not till later down the pipeline.

Oh and poke all you want about my ldr's. If I started using bigger flies I might land some of those fish. Maybe its just my old age creeping in on my reflexes since I'm 44 and all.

Later Dude,

Hello Old Timer Rich,

I'll look for you on the 20th annual get together in 2026. On the other hand, you could let us know if you ever decide to fish down here before then.

Hey Don,

When I used to make plans it seemed as all went pretty good. Now I can't make plans and follow through for nothing. I guess I could just wait for retirement but, I don't think I'll be able to walk when I'm 80. I really want to get down there sometime and fish Taney and Roaring River too. I know its bad but I got some money coming from my hand injury and I know we are going to get slow here real soon so maybe I'll get down that way before too much longer.

See ya bud,

Rich
