    The cold snap here has gotten me looking for plastic bags and My Old Coat.

    precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think,
    to enjoy, to love.

    My best hunting partner, dad, passed away 13 years ago and I inherited his hunting coat. Ater last years hunts I figured it was time to trash it, but could not bear to. I found a tailer who worked it over for half the price of a new coat and now I can hunt with dad for the rest of my life.

    Very touching story Spinner1. Wouldn't it be great if you could find enough hair and feathers in the pockets to tie at least one fly.

    Very moving. Made me go get out Gramp's shotgun and give it a wipe down.

    Thanks,
