======================
Hiya Bob!
-> 
->  ->  Like everyone else who isn't a CEO or stock broker.
->  -> 
->  HN> Well this was back in the 50's ...did they
->  HN> have CEO's back then? (grin)
-> 
->  Dunno, I remember company presidents and COO's, but
->  back then Mayors ran towns they were elected to run,
->  not served as figureheads to city executives who run
->  towns today.
->  
->  HN> Yup. When I was in high school I was on the
->  HN> rifle team...kept my .22 in my locker at school.
->  HN> Could you imagine what an uproar that would 
->  HN> cause today?? Had a 303 enfield in the back 
->  HN> window of my truck for years...no problems.
-> 
->  Yup, I used to walk to edge of town, stick a shell in and
->  step off into the fields, back in a couple hours with a
->  pheasant or two.  Today a kid would have to walk half way
->  across Michigan to find a place to do that in the south.
->  One thing for our generation, they certainly have neglected
->  their duty in the people creation department.
-> 
I dunno, seems to be a whole lot of em 
clogging up the scenery around here! (grin)
 
->  ->  The times they was changing, have changed!
->  -> 
->  ->  Now most outside food searching activities occur on the
->  ->  way to the buffet.  Still dangle a string in the water
->  ->  a bit, but not like old days.
->  -> 
->  HN> Cause Jake's growing up?
-> 
->  He is more selective, but we still go fishing. Now though
->  he isn't happy in a place with a lot of sunfish and a cane
->  pole, a few catfish are not brought back for a supper. Now
->  we have to be in Tim Hortons by day break to catch the bass
->  feeding on the mayfly rise.  I'm slowing down as he speeds
->  up.
->
I like fly fishing fine, and using surface
poppers for bass on light spinning gear
can be a real hoot. You ought to bring
him out west for salmon and halibut fishin!
  
->  ->  You need a Jake, Hap.  Get on that daughter of yours.
->  ->  It's time isn't it.  :-)
->  ->
->  HN> She's too focused on her PhD work right now
->  HN> and where she is there ain't many fellows to 
->  HN> choose from.
-> 
->  Is she still in Southern Cal?
->
Northern Cal...about 2 hours north
of San fran...almost due west of 
Sacramento. 
  
->  ->  Now just eat your hearts out.  I just finished a sandwich
->  ->  constructed of well buttered wheat bread, a nice thin sweet
->  ->  onion and a big fistful of endive, pulled this morning and
->  ->  cooling in ice water to now.  That is heaven to my taste buds.
->  -> 
->  HN> What? no tomatter in the middle?
-> 
->  I've got one almost ready to pick, an Early Girl variety.
->  Otherwise we are several weeks away here.  My daughter gave
->  me on of those hanging basket things and an upside down tomato
->  plant for Fathers Day.  Darndest thing I ever saw. It has
->  flowers.
-> 
->  Bob
-> 
Gonna have maters before the frost gets it?
chat with you soon
