FishinCricket Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 So I checked out for a few years, call it a temporary hiatus for the sanity of those around me... Not much has changed really, moved on from car sales to home sales. I went to the river to visit with Fishinwrench and someone there asked why I don't post on here anymore. Frankly I couldn't come up with a great reason.. So here I am! If you missed me, check in! If you never liked me, fine.. Go away. I am sure a few of you might like some of my memories though, I've been around a bit.. I am sure Chief and the rest will remember this one from a Shoal Creek float...

Missouri tarantulas even a scorpion, shrews... they cut a great deal of timber out on the west side of the creek..last few big floods have ripped that bank wide....doubling the width of the stream....why they felt the need to cut the stream side timber Ill never know.... MONKEYS? what monkeys?
