Have not read the magizine in a while, but you always put out a good read. Change is good, and good for you... time to broaden the horizons with your prose, even as you continue there as a feature writer.. other oppurtunities are out there.. just like fishing.. persue all venues..
Good luck to the new fellow.... and I hope he is as truthfull, and cautious in his reports, as you were....and Thank You for that!
Now.. don't go the way of your predecessor..
