Howdy Brian, Diana!! Man, the pups are growing like crazy!!! Well, it's finally scheduled (if nothing happens to force a change of plans... like 90+ year old parents passing...). I plan on leaving south Texas on May 29 or 30th, and moving up to the property on the Kenai Peninsula near Ninilchik. I know, right... it's been a long time planning to get to this point. Now comes the real challenge... sifting, sorting, getting rid of everything that is not going (which is a lot). I'll be driving the truck, pulling a trailer with my motorcycle, new CF Moto 4-wheeler, and the truck has a topper on the back so that's where the 4 dogs will be riding. I'm guesstimating 10-12 days for the drive... maybe less if I find someone to ride along and help with the dogs, so I should be there by June 10th at the latest. I seem to remember that y'all went to fish the Kenai area once a year??? If you do come that way, let me know!! It would be awesome to meet up! I don't know if you follow "Sean In Alaska" or not, but he and I have developed a good friendship. He's wanting me to give him BRISKET lessons... so probably sometime in July or August we'll do that. Don't try to tell me that you don't miss good old Texas Brisket??? lol... We will probably do a joint video when we do the brisket. So keep that in the back of your mind should you happen to venture towards the Peninsula this summer. Those new boots and waders look really nice!! A couple of friends of mine from the channel "Wood and Waters Outdoors" just got a pair of those as well. I may have to seriously consider them. Take care guys!! Bill
