I by no means want to see you go, but what you have there is awesome and congrats on kicking the ass of ailments that tried to slow you down!!

Most.. if not all of my injuries and aches and pains can be traced back to fishing, hunting or trapping... I could count on one hand how many times I have said i was too tired, too beat up or too sick to fish... they haven't created the calculator with enough momory to count how many times I WANTED to say all of the above about going to work..lifes what you make of it... we all grow old... most of us live with aches and paines...I'd rather live my life.. as short as long as it may be.. doing what I enjoy... and sitting around growing old, waiting to die isn't in the cards..
