Thanks for the kind words, Ed - I'm glad you stopped by - we're still playing catch-up after the Open House.

Yeah, it was pretty tough duty sitting on the porch with chowder and telling fish tales with Monomoy Ed - and it ain't over yet from all recent indications

We had a good turnout Chef - and we were very pleased with the reception everything got - we worked our butts off to get everything done and the reactions we got were worth every minute.

I don't know if it was any easier working those kinds of hours when I was 25 (as opposed to 55) - I think I just got over it quicker. But I was up at 4 AM the next day for a pre-dawn patrol and Mrs. Crafty was right there with me!

The whole crew from the Edge stopped in, Iron Mike (on his best behavior) with the Mrs. and Fisher, my friend Professor Timmy O'Nitis, the famous Irish marine biologist (principle state biologist, as he reminded me) - along with Monomoy Ed, Uncle Zeke and the Mrs., and on and on...

Sold a number of prints and I have one client interested in some Denton originals among other things....

Several guys who couldn't make it PM'd me that they'll be coming by late this week or next - I'm going to maintain a small gallery by appointment with everything on display - which means basically just give me a call or PM me to make sure I'm here.

All in all, we were happy - we just wanted to show our work and see if people were gonna look at us like we had lobsters crawling out of our ears for doing this stuff....apparently, they really liked it.

So my thanks to everyone who stopped by - and my biggest thanks to Mrs. Crafty for the great work she did in the digital restoration of those prints - I couldn't have done it without her

Yup, she made me what I am today - boy, I hope she's satisfied........

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
