I too find myself going in other directions this summer. My boys are home for maybe their last summer together and I find myself spending all my available time with them. We also have been taught how to turn wood on the lathe we've had in the corner for many years so I come home from work and they're both in the shop, one turning wood, one drilling, gluing and I join them. Last night I grabbed my portable tying desk and tied up some bluegill flies while watching and listening to them.
Momma came out about 7:30 and rang the dinner bell. I looked up and she was crying as she realized times have changed and may never be the same.
NH, thank you for your pm's and sharing on the board. I too will be lurking and not quite as active. Maybe when fall comes.....I may be back with more gusto.
