Ron,
The Chili Pepper is one of my favorites as well. Several of us visited with him and his wife Dot at there home years ago before one of the Sow Bug meetings. By the way, Dot was a great cook! He tied a Chili Pepper for me that day along with his woven tail May Fly and I have kept them in my prized collection since. After that, I have tied both of them for my use. He also built me a bamboo rod that I cherish. What a guy!! Haven't heard from you in awhile and glad to hear you are well.
