Eric, still in Missouri. Got out of chasing waterfowl for a while while receiving treatmen for cancer. Been doing a lot of trout fishing, guiding, and tying flies for some different shops. Started shooting some sky carp again, and as a matter of fact, just got back from Cheyenne Bottoms in Kansas. If you think Arkansas is good, then you will dedinitely have to try Kansas! Lots of mallards, pintail, and geese. Dogs got a good workout for once, and it seemed they havent forgotten much. Todd is doing well. He is still paralyzed from the chest down after getting shot in Huntsville during an attempted carjacking. After 8 weeks in ICU in Huntsville, we med flighted him to Atlanta to the Shepard Center for spinal chord rehab. We then moved back to Missouri, and now live south of there in Imperial. Todd finished his education at University of Missouri in Columbia. He now is working for Washington University in St. Louis. He has 3 dgrees, but is now working as a paralegal in their law library doing research. He still,has a lot of medical issues, but handles them well. He is my hero. Not once has he complained about his condition, or reality. How many more old timers have we lost? Steve was quite a shock. Last time I talked with him, he was planning to move back to Florida, I think. Mentioned to him that the older you get, warm weather bird hunting gets more interesting, and would be glad to dodge some gators while shootin teal! Stay in touch, and I will get back to you soon. How is the family doing now? Are you a grandfather yet! Take care. Gene
