I will be there--I like it when a plan comes together.

Sounds like close to a plan--I'm game so is Sk Jordan and he is going to

call the Danville guys--Joseph told me about a month ago that he would be

willing to come down and instruct and if we can plan ahead and let him know

he can bring material--The Hot Rod Saloon is closed--martial problems--

potluck was suggested or pizza. I will check with the library tomorrow and

see what we can work out. Maybe after the Christmas vacation we can make

things final.

Sandpiper is sold--Thanks

Forgot to say the Sandpiper is a Solo canoe Thanks Dan for calling.

Sants dropped a Renzetti Traveler Rotary on my Fly Tying table for Xmas and I just love it. Like Steve said, it is much easier onthe neck and I can tie 18 t0 3/0 and have done it a lot easier with the rotary feature. I believe the Dyna King is equal in quality and features but the Traveler and yhe price was right--free from santa.

Thanks To Joesph and crew and to John-Cory and Mike for your time and efforts to arrange a very

enlighting day at the bench. Thanks again guys.
