After 18 years, Donna and I have settled into a home again in Michigan. 106 degrees a couple days ago in Cotulla, Texas and 37 degrees this am in Houghton Lake, Michigan.
This Texigander is REALLY enjoying wearing flannel again and the smell of fresh lake water has me drunk from sniffing.

It's great to be back.
And that's it. With a shop and a home to put all back in place over the coming months I told the Mrs. this is this hombre's last move.

Blessings,
Mark

I don't know how you do it Mark. It would be very difficult for me to pull up stakes and move around the country with my business as you have over the years. I know how much is involved in doing that with all that we have to move and reestablish each time. But you had your reasons and made it work for the both of you. The best to you, my friend.

Bob, how are you my lure making compadre? You headed to the NTA? If so, let's catch up.
How do we do it? Well, I will admit that there was a moment yesterday, when I stood outside the soon to be lure and bait shop that is not put together yet, but which a semi crew delivered all the stuff (with Donna being here) about a month ago....

that I wanted to cry.

That's it. Never again. Ever. We came back to Michigan for various reasons, and one HUGE one is that our son Eric is able to help us and ship orders and such when we're not here.

Good to hear from you Bob. Let's catch up.

Blessings,
Mark

Well it was good to have you while you were here.

Good luck in the new place and with whatever the Lord has in store for you.

Will you be doing jobs in Texas still or working closer to home?

Welcome home Mark and Donna.

Can't wait to stop in once you are settled and have the shop open.
