Earlier last month Pat W. invited my wife and I over for coffee while on our way to Dallas. Pat has a beautiful place up in the woods east of Buffalo in Oakwood, TX. Pat's 5 acre pond is almost full and the water looked great. Pat, thanks for taking the time to show us around your place. Can't wait to see it when you are done with the house. Thanks, again for the plants that you gave to Debbie.

I had the opportunity to come out and fish with Pat. W. It's been since mid-March that we were last there at his place and at the time his pond was about 5' from full pool. Well, all that's changed. Pat's 5 acre pond is at full pool, the place is beautiful, the water looks great. We got to do some fishing at his place and at other ponds in the vicinity. Please forgive my inability to photograph...


One of Pat's second year "gills"....they are really making some gains.


Pat W. with a nice LMB...I love the color on these fish...


stickem' gets into the action...

Geez you guys, ya make me a bit jealous but then the way ya bicker it makes me wonder if one of ya is gonna ask the other to go steady. Not you stickem, you seem semi normal. "Semi" I don't like to agree with Sunil but he is correct. You Texas boys can come up through Il and pick up Billy and come over here and fish away. Did ya know the Falstaff brewery was in Ft Wayne, Indiana where I grew up. One of the most popular Ft Wayne hockey players and one of my high school teachers worked there. Absolutely awful beer!!! Pat, I'm gonna have ta send ya a pm to express my opinion of the way ya look. I think stickem should have give ya a little nudge. Very nice pier tho.

Hey, you guys are making me jealous as well - y'all are playing around in my backyard - so to speak..!

Our country place is between Fairfield and Buffalo, just south of Dew - my grand daddy hauled the timbers for that litle Methodist Church in Dew. If you are interested in Texas history visit the church cemetary - family members from recent interment back to ancestor grandparents that that were citizens of the Republic of TExas.

Ancestor uncle early settler and General Store owner in Oakwood.
Lots of good memories y'all are reviving - keep it up!

Pat, I would dearly love to come for a visit but hitting the wall at 90 years with recurring health issues, is keeping me pretty much home bound these days.
Really enjoy and appreciate your posts - keep up the good work!

Bob-O,
In some of the past circles that I've run in...that would be considered a compliment...and be careful about inviting me...I'm liable to show up.
