What a wonderful story Ed. I had never heard the one about banning bananas on the boat though. Wisconsin has wonderful people. The Cleveland Browns got one of the best when they picked Joe Thomas. It is great to see you are enjoying Northern hospitality. I am from the north and the fishermen in Ohio are just as friendly. I moved to the south and the Crappies are bigger and the fishing folks are just as hospitable. I try and live by Romans 12:9-19 so as to be hospitable myself.

You have to love Crappie fishermen. They welcome you with open arms, are.kind as well as patient. When they are off the water they love to have fun. Looks like you and the wife did. Well done my friend. To top it off you got to walk the same grounds as Lombardi. He always said " If it important enough to you be here ten minutes before the meeting starts." I live by Lombardi time.

Glad you and the family had fun.
