Annual pier picnic
Coach mentioned it to me on the phone the other day and keep forgetting to post about it. Finally remembered though. It is getting close to that time of year for the annual pier picnic. I am going to ask for it off work so I can actually make it for my first time. Let's start thinking of date so I can ask for the day off. We can already rule out the Saturday before Easter.

I think "king tournament" is a sore subject. Bill, did you ever get paid?

yes (Paid)...... and no sore subject with me, except maybe loosing the winning king half way up, but that is fishing....It would have been nice winning both categories, but just wasn't meant to be.....and very happy with the one.....and coming home with a gem of a rod, redone by John and J&M.....best vacation ever and well needed
I think to much going on that day to have any kind of function(tourney)..... but the picnic and sharing with all the ones in attendanceBill..............
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
