Well, it is official. My residency in Illinois ends in a few short weeks and my residency begins in Arkansas. I have accepted a position at a health system in Batesville. I can't tell you how much I appreciate all the friendships I've made here. Birdman was the first to put us on fish on the 'Ville five years ago and we will always appreciate his overtures. Stumpjumper1 runs the best campground I've ever been associated with. Him and his wife Linda are wonderful people! Meat56 has become a great friend and I think I've only actually met him in person once. There are others as well, but my personal chef (clfarms1) and his wife Sharon are two of the greatest people I've ever met. Pam and I have enjoyed the time we've spent with everyone and we will miss you all. One of our greatest memories is the time we spent with all of you around our campfire, breaking bread, telling lies, and laughing our butts off. I'm going to be busy getting acclimated to Arkansas and getting used to wearing a coat and tie, so I probably won't be able to fish much this year, but I will live vicariously through all of you. Thank you and may the good lord bless all of you!

Jeff and Pam
