Rlott, Sounds like you guys had fun. Seattle can be a great city with decent people. There's always something to do and places to eat at all hours and it's unique in its setting. Taking a ferry for daily commutes, football games, etc is a fun way to travel (usually) and a part of life up here. I'm always happy to hear that our city treats visitors well because I remember the older Seattle. I'm starting to sound like my grandpa when I prefer the old to the new. Less people, less traffic, better fishing. I haven't done any crabbing this summer with everything I've got going on but when it opens this winter I'll hit it hard. There's much less pressure during the winter season and it's open 7 days a week so I just keep my pots out and collect and rebait every day or 2. I've only been here ten years and Seattle isn't what it was in '07 when I moved out here. Even a coworker who came up from CA (the good kind of CA import) says it's changed in the 2 years since he moved out here. But the surrounding areas are excellent.
It's about like this:
"Do you puff peters?"
"Hell no!"
"NAZI!!!"

Good here, Bob. Same old schit. If you're ever up this way, send me a PM and we can have lunch.

WTF?
Heard you was in jail. True? -------- Jail? Me? Just moving Hell. I think I would have preferred jail, though. Makes me think of "My Cousin Vinnie". Actually, I can relate. I hate moving.

Anyways, Bob, good to see your handle back here. I took a few months off from this site earlier this summer, but if I just avoid the reading doofus posts from trolls and the Optics forum (there's a redundancy for ya!) I am enjoying th place again. Should be tolerable until the election run up starts for 2018, anyway.
Things are pretty nice around here these days. The Redhead is a blonde now, but I'm still a greybeard. Tiny is up to 6'8" and 330 now, and he's got himself a Division 1 scholarship even before his senior high school season. So unlike you, I won't be paying 100 grand to WVU over the next 4 years... thank heaven for small mercies. I'll be at Lootenant Pat's dove camp inOctober, hope to see you there.

Hey Bob,
Just noticed that you're back. I've been pretty low profile for a while but it's good to see you are around.

Great on your son. What a relief that must be.
I'm just at the southern end of Fairfax County, so, in spite of my efforts otherwise, I'm still surrounded by the color red in Northern Va.
Thanks to all others for their kind words.

Bob,
Great to see that you are back in action at the Campfire.
You were very obviously missed by all of us here.
We may have some hunting to do with you.
All the best. You deserve it.
Steve
