First off I would like to say that I am so happy to be a part of such a special group of people!
I know that these guys are some of the best plug builders in the World!
And are inventing and turning some serious wood for sure
That will be around a lot longer than most of us will be on this earth!
Thanks to John,Dave and Slip to put this thing in action again!
A special thanks to Tagger for serveral things
First off for having 2 special guys,Carl and Stan K, What a joy talking to both of them and to see Stan smile as he looks at the antique fishing lures built by himeself and other fishing legendary lure designers that he grew up with and fished the banks of the canal with for many years.
Talking with both of them was very special to me!
Also It was nice to talk with someone older than CS
A huge thanks to CS for yet another work of art of his is now in my collection.
The food was unreal and every time I turned around I noticed another good friend Paul M trying like hell to add 5lbs to the 110 lb frame of his ..lol
Karl, thanks for the beer, I am sure it's a first for me to have a beer in front of me for that long of a time frame that I did not open
Congrats to all the people who won prizes for their works of art!

Thanks to Vic for missing his services
