I received the biggest surprise of my life tonight … bar none!
Tonight at fly tying group Tim asked what I thought about a rod … a beautiful bamboo 7’4# rod … that he had with him. I drooled all over it, told him it was beautiful … and he said, that it was good I liked it because it was mine. He and the other four fellows (my boys!) bought it for me for my birthday! I’m still , 2 hours later, stuttering and stammering around! They said I was always doing something for them, it was time they did something for me.
I loves my boys! I will never be able to adequately thank them for their kindness and generosity. So here’s a pubic thank you to all of them. You are ever so special to me.
Love and big hugs,
Betty
Sounds like an absolutely delightful surprise. What an awesome way to get a birthday gift! Good for you, have a very happy day and let us all know how the rod fishes for you.
What a great gift! And Happy Birthday Betty! I still tie up Betty Blues and Dark Bettys (the snipe and blue, and a starling and royal blue) and use them as some of my go to patterns.
