    Default Kindness pays off.

    Yesterday I saw a couple guys having to lift a fella out of the boat into a wheelchair. An older gentlemen who apparently could not use his legs. I spoke with the son just briefly and don't know where they're from but I thought that was an awesome thing to do. I'm sure both will never forget the adventure. And from what I hear they caught lots of fish too. It pays to help others out. Never know when you might need someone returning the favor. Not sure why I was inclined to write this other than maybe I hear people complain about what in reality are senseless things to complain about. If you have good health you are fortunate.

    I know how he feels. If it wernt for my fishing partner Torch , I probably wouldnt get to fish much. With COPD and Heart problems , It has gotten to the point I cant make the uphill walk to get the truck and load the boat. It pays to be watchful of those that really need a little help. Just my $.02....

    Over the years I have fished with several in wheelchairs, amazes me that there aint no quit in em, I just don't see them as handicapped, just challenged and most step up. I am blessed with decent health and always try to take time to help if I can.
    Very cool what those guys were doing.
