Branhap- ouch, I yours and her pain, my oldest broke her collar bone at age 4, almost impossible to keep someone that young from hurting an injury more.
All- waiting on one more ingredient to arrive before I can tie, should be soon (tonight?), and next week should not be as hectic as the last few months, 60+ hour weeks. Have done a few practice ties and have the pattern down so should take no more then a couple of nights to get the flies done and in the mail.

flies are on the way!
Mine went in the mail today!
Gigmaster I sent you Christopher and my flies (in separate boxes, WITH toe tags, lol) with one return envelope. Also there is a little baggie with January SOTM flies for Sjo, and also Branhap's January ties so you can distribute those. I also put a little baggie with January's SOTM flies for Branhap in his flybox, so you won't have to worry about sorting those out at all.
Does that make sense? :-)
