Did a Sauk/Skagit run yesterday that was for the memory book. Passed a group of fly fishers on both sides of the bank so I drifted down the middle to stay out of their water as best as I could. Noticed an old gray beard fisher (maybe a year older than me at best). Shouted out a hello to Smalma. Got a 1/2 mile or so down and thought....I should have shouted out THANK YOU!!!!! If it weren't for Kurt, Steve, Wayne and "Occupy Skagit" a day on the river I'll never forget would not have happened.

Thank you again!!!!
