Well it seems everyone has weathered the "COLD SNAP" rather well. Allison if you would close the gate I would appreciate it! Ice storms in Southeast Texas. That's just wrong. Tressie was in California and missed it. Devin and I stayed our "HAPPY A--" at the house. Ice storms and 5.5 million people and driving? You do the math. I fought that s--- for 46 years and thought I left it behind. I have orders to make service trips to Saginaw, Michigan and Minneapolis, Minnesota and I have put them off till spring. LATE SPRING. I told Tressie we were moving further south to get away from anything remotely related to winter. Problem is I am running out of Texas land. Only 100 more miles and it gets a little salty. Houses in Cabo are not too bad but airfare kills the deal. My Boss says I can live anywhere in the south, but not south of the border.

That's about all from me. Just work and trying to stay warm. Running back and forth to North Carolina and Florida for the next two months then all over Texas till May.

Allison, thanks for closing the gate. I owe you one.

Blair. Please teach in your classes to the employees of Fort Worth how to justiify good fishing days and bad fishing days. City of Fort Worth would not want it's people picking the bad days to TAKE OFF WORK.
