Gregg S Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Hey guys, My book, a memoir of outdoor experiences, went to the publisher yesterday. It includes an account of how Jim J convinced me to join the ISA by promising me that Pete Plauck would become my personal fish caddy (some salesman that guy), a profile of the ISA guys I go to Sylvania with, and other adventures such as climbing Mount Rainier and going to Outward Bound. I'm looking at around June 1st for it to be printed. I'll keep you posted in hopes that some of you will enjoy reading it. I think you will.

Gary L Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 That sounds great Greg! I will be looking for a copy to read during the short winter down here. You are a well traveled man for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg S Posted April 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Thanks for the support guys. I really appreciate it. Jim, don't fret. We're having a little fun with you. Gregg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Trybul Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Sounds like an interesting read. I should go for an autographed copy too. Jim didn't lie to me. My best free guided trip ever in IL waters was guided by Pete Plauk. If I never joined the ISA it probably never would have happened. Pete probably offered me this trip because I turned him on to the spot where he caught his 20.5" Kish smallmouth. It all comes full circle.

Gregg S Posted April 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Paul, You'll probably appreciate how you are characterized in a chapter called "The Sylvania Crew." Rather than give it away here I'll let you read it when the time comes. Gregg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim J Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 My sense of humor is diminished due to high river water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Trybul Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Gregg, are you calling me a "character"? I resemble that remark. I'm feeling the blues too because of constant rain, high water, and lets just throw a 30 degree temperature drop on top of that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Smith Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 That temperature drop is a kick in the gut for sure. Gregg, I didn't realize we had a author in our midst. Gonna have to break out the reading glasses this summer it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
