nice prize beetle! i was checking those out.the only thing i could see that might need improvement is putting on a rubber piece that will slide up the strap on your shoulder to prevent the nylon strap from digging in don't recall seeing one on them.i'm going to order one a little down the road. VAN* nice to meet you too, i'll work on the get together!

S/Manic - George Carbone is a great guy to deal with - he would look forward to getting feedback from customers on product improvements.

Chris & Shore - glad ya won something!

Chris - I have your Carbone Bag and it has a rod & reel inside it too (would be good for your girls) and some other schtuff :D ... I'm sure I will see you soon at some point, right?

I actually won one drawing too.
It was a wooden hand caved frame with fishies on it.
But being so BIG hearted, I put it back on the table.

The guy who won it was psyched !!!!!!

Thanks to everybody.

I got a surprise last night.
Went to Walmart to pick through some stuff, got a few storm lures and decided to pick up a rod/reel combo for my son.
It was an off brand "Hurricane"....
The combo was 35 bucks so I figured what the heck.

When I brought it to the register, it rang through at 7 DOLLARS !!!

Talk about psyched !!!!
And it is pretty good qualit too.

I should be heading in your direction soon enough . If I can keep Alex's mind on other things , bike riding is big right now . Dont forget to load the bikes in your truck for tonite Dad .
