    Ironman

    Ironman (Bill) has been down with us for a while and his stay is about to wind down. While here he has spread good will around, and has been generous with the jerky and the jigs he makes-he does both very well. Even brought Lou some of his favorite donuts-raspberry!

    Last week Bill got whacked in the foot by a stingray and made a trip to the hospital where he was treated and put on a round of potent anti-biotics. These caused a painful reaction with the sun but he's been toughing it out these last few days. I wanted to thank him for all he's done, wish him safe travels on the way home and hope that his next trip down takes a better turn.

    Thanks Bill!
