It was a true honor for Cathy and I to be a waypoint, twice, for the Traveling Castaways!
Glad you both made it home safely!!!

(video attached) Although it's been nearly 6 months since our adventure ended, there's rarely a day goes by that I don't relive or reflect on the places we went and the things we did, but more importantly the people we met, and specifically the Pond Boss members who so graciously opened their hearts, their homes (and for many, their wallets!) to offer us such incredible experiences! Experiences that will always be remembered, cherished, and never forgotten! As I'm trying to compile a full video of our adventure, after over 4 weeks, 6000 miles, and a lot of photos and video footage it will be very lengthy, and with my computer skills a long time in the making to try to get it right  . In the meantime, I wanted to compile a short video, a tribute of sorts to the people we met along the way, with whom I can't thank enough for adding so much to what is and will always be, for me the trip of a lifetime. My sincere apologies if I've missed anyone, and as the video includes those who hosted us I want to also include those who followed along and commented via the forum and encouraging us along the way. To begin the video with how it ends: Thank you, Pond Boss! https://youtu.be/o-R41Rfx0k0PS to Rex - I apologize for misspelling Cathy's name in the video (or anyone else's for that matter!) and will try to get it corrected and republished, and/or any other corrections that may get pointed out .

Well done Keith. I had a ball.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Thanks guys, and as I told Scott, I couldn't have made that video without you all! Nice video, Keith. Did I send you the snaps of your car all loaded when you came to pick up Fatih in Atlanta? If not PM me an E-mail address and I will E-mail you those pics. You got pics of the loaded car in that downpour? LOL Sending PM, thanks!

I like it!! Fatih might have spanked you while fishing for Carp, but you got him back fishing in my pond for LMB!!  I never went and looked for that chatterbait..............

Scott, Keith never caught as many fish as i did except once or twice. But it was because he was very busy with enjoying the scenery or posting on Facebook, haha.
Thanks Keith, that was great...

What an adventure you guys had. So many of us were honored to be part of it, through an in person visit or by following you here on pb. Thanks again for letting us share this with you two.
Until we meet again,

Cmm, this is still one of my favorite pics, taken by Michael while fly fishing on your pond! (let alone the great article you wrote for "The Windsor News"!) Thank you!  (although I think George would shoot me for seeing my wrist bent like that  ! )

Keith,
What an awesome tribute. That was an awful nice thing to do for Fatih...This is what community is all about. It's unselfishness like this that makes me want to be a part of our unique group.

...when in doubt...set the hook...

Keith, +1 to what the others have said! When I saw that picture of you standing in the canoe my first thought was....if that was me trying to stand in a canoe, wonder whether I would have fallen forward or backwards into the puddle!

Hope Pond Boss member Fatih and his family/friends are all ok after such a horrible day in Turkey.
God Bless...
Fishing has never been about the fish....

God Bless... Amen Mark, Amen! Keith reminded me in a PM that it was one year ago today that him and Fatih visited our place after a great time at CMM's. We went to dinner, then out to shoot some pool before they went to a room I had at a local extended stay place... Keith was a little freaked out that we were enjoying ourselves while under multiple tornado warnings, with sirens blaring much of the evening...lol

Thoughtful post, Zep and I hope to touch base with Fatih in the morning as he's 7 hours ahead of CST. Hopefully he and his family and friends are all safe. Istanbul is about 600 miles from where Fatih lives, so again hopefully everyone is safe. Horrible to think what goes on in that part of the world, let alone in other parts as well. Let's hope he chimes in tomorrow! PS to Rex - With the sirens blaring I had wondered if that's why the pool hall was nearly empty that night!

Fatih texted me a picture of a fatty LMB in a tank tonight. That was before I saw about what happened over there. He flew back into Istanbul from being in Texas a few weeks ago.
