Ok a few corrections first:

You must mean HABS, with that moustache, he could pass as a monster.

All kidding aside, this was by far the best year of my life. Through all the days spent in the hospital before, during and after having the baby was well worth it. It's really amazing what kind of spin on life a little one can do for someone. As Mike Laptew told me the day I told him we were having a baby "Words cannot describe the way you feel when you hold your baby for the first time" and man he was right.
Had some good time fishing as well and met some really good people.
Some things that stick out in my mind as I think about the year;
Bloocrab falling in the run.
The night Bloocrab and I ran out of herring, twice and were to tired to go back for more.
Lunch and dinner at the Provincetown Inn with Habs and Jack.
50 eels and 50 fish with Iron Mike.
4:00pm in the afternoon casting into a few acres of busting bass and bluefish, ALONE.
Standing shoulder to shoulder with Iron Mike watching huge bass (30+lbs) pass right in front of us (within 5 feet) hammering small bunker, a real act of mother nature.
3 days and two nights at the Cuttyhunk Bass Club, lots of laughs and no HEAT!
Met some good people along the way as well, too many to name.
All in all, one hell of a year!
