I feel like a bit of a fool announcing this, especially after I made such a fuss about needing to find a place to stay, but sadly I won’t be able to make it to the fish-in.
My job situation has gotten really bad, and I put in my letter of resignation two days ago (organizational problems made worse by a bad boss). To make matters worse, my brother was arrested and put in jail for pulling a gun on someone, and my Dad was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. The MS wouldn’t be such a problem if my Mom weren’t already in the advanced stages of Fascioscapular Muscular Dystrophy. I swear that I’m not making this stuff up. So, added to my wife’s pregnancy, and a cross country move, it looks like life is a little to complicated to be able to make the fish-in.
I hope you guys all have a fun time, and catch plenty of fish without me. If you’re the praying type, remember me.
cheers,

Ray, life can be a real test of strength and spirit. You are a survivor and things will come together for you and your family. Take care of that wife of yours and the future one in the family.
Till the next fish-in

Excus my spelling and gramma, I hooked Mondays and Fridays so I could Hunt or fish.
That’s somewhat similar to what happened to me for the first 2 fish-ins. Only got to go to the 1 st for part of a day. I’m supposed to be coordinating this one, and if I hadn’t been doing all these hurricane repairs about every day since Super Bowl Sunday…I probably wouldn’t get to go to this one!
