Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction. (me)

I am the master of my unspoken words, and the slave to those that should have remained unsaid. (unknown)

The mistletoe the jigfest group found in Arkansas reminded me of one of early adventures to the White River. Railroad buddy who my kids nicknamed "Mr. Fuji" and I were to meet up with Joe and Terry Graven from Sand Springs resort for a few days of fishing. The closer we got, the more Mr. Fuji talked about all the squirrel nests along the river. I'm driving but not seeing but a few actual squirrel nests. I finally asked him what he was seeing and he pointed out a bunch of mistletoe. I could see the light go on in his eyes and he asked "Is that the stuff they sell at Famous Barr in the winter for $5-10 a sprig." Yes it is I told him. The light is still on and he's devising a plan to get some. He decided we could climb some of those trees and retrieve enough to pay for our trip. Some of the mistletoe must have been 50-60 feet in the tops of some big trees. We didn't stop as there's no way he or I either one could climb that high.Β  He might have set the world record for casting a #7 shad rap. Our guide told him the Rapala shad rap were the hot plug so he bought all they had at the dock for $7 plus tax. His first cast ,the line broke and I believe he could have grabbed some of that mistletoe as far as that plug went. Sure do miss him.
