I told M the story of John Channer, how I meet him in Colorado, he called me "Shay's Grasshopper" and although at the time I thought it was fucked up, I now think it is honorable.
So we raised one to toast him tonight. My wife and I on a date. She had a look into my friends, from my point-of-view.
John made a good fly rod, I cast many of his and I wish to G~d I had one. They were reasonably priced and now???
He is up there with the rest of the old dead guys far as I'm concerned.
Cool dude. |

Holy crap...I'm gonna miss that crusty old bastard.
I wish I could make the funeral.
It figures though, that when John met his end, it was just after helping someone. |
