Brett and Christa want to say a great big thanks to Grandpa. He handmade both of us new fly fishing rods. Brett wasnt really acting very excited while grandpa was there, but as soon as grandpa left he made up a few songs about his new pole. Brett cant wait to try it out on a lake. Steve handmade each of our rods. He used purple and green on mine, and grey and red on Bretts. We all got our favorite colors. Also in each of the poles he put a feather. It was freezing cold today but Brett got to go outside and cast for a minute. He caught the best fish of all (grandpa).

Something else I learned today was that grandpa has realized that I am a bad luck charm! We have had so many adventures since I have been part of their family- many of them include broken down cars, flat tires, fish hooks in my head, tipping over in the Green, and freezing cold. now that all sounds bad but we have a million great memories as well. So my new rod has a great story behind it. Steve is the only one who can tell it but my new rod has already been ran over by a car. To hear of the rest of the story you will have to ask Steve.
