Pete,

Good to hear you so pumped.

I gotta share ... I just got a retirement place/job (with a great landlord)on an honest-to-God wilderness 3000 acre ranch on the east slope of the Livingstone Range in SW Alberta. A small cut-throat stream 100' from my front porch ... the fabled Oldman River 400 yards away ... and the Crowsnest River is just a 25-minute drive. Strictly Sat-phone country out on the water around my place ... the rods that you sold me will be well-used.

Soon-to-be-in-heaven,

Ron in Winnipeg
