Reflections:

Chis and his dad Randall are great folks. Chris is soft spoken, confident young man, I sure hope he decides to persue Pond Bossin as a career. Chis is also a tremendous fly fisherman and fish filleter. Ricki and I had the pleasure of talking with Randall one evening, he is an inspirational "just do it" type of person. He had some great tractor tales. I have serious tractor envy.

I only briefly got a chance to talk to the Overton crew - good people one and all. I want to personally thank them (and the other Pond Boss folks) that set up that fish tank. I know that it must have taken a tremendous effort and I think that it really added to the ambience of the room. You guys are great.

David and Al are "salt of the earth" people that I feel honored to have spent time with. We had a great conversation about the friendship factor of Pond Boss - we concluded that we are all more that just a forum, we are an extended family, and now they have at least one black sheep in their family tree. (Please, please Brettski, do not create a photochop of my head on a black sheep, please, please, grovel, please).
