Targa911s

Where is he? Just ran across one of his replies on a thread and realized I haven't seen him on here lately. Hasn't posted anything since March?

He's not very online these days, Often doesn't reply for weeks.
I reckon there's still a great deal of trout still in the water in need of fishing out.
But no worries, he's doing alright as far as I can tell

I just got off the phone with David. I realized we had not talked in a year or so and I decided to call him.

We laughed and giggled about the silly stuff, had great conversations about what is important to us both.

He is fine. Frankly, better than fine: He is doing some new and interesting things.

He told me he'll log on tomorrow.

That's good to hear.
I enjoyed his spoon fixing threads a lot.

Exactly right. I won't post the pictures he sent me but he has pivoted a bit from guns to building guitars.

I never liked Dave.

Yep...a smallmouth bass, but a very large one.

Crap I had this whole dissertation typed up about where the hell I have been, then I lost it. So the short story is Im good. Lived through COVID, Mj is still sick but with us, Hank the Airedale is not, died last week from cancer. Playing with two bands and had a busy summer doing city festivals and the lot. Don't do guns anymore. Sold a bunch of them and reinvested in high end Gibson acoustic guitars. I kept my Colts.Been building guitars and basses. Build one for Art. He's pretty happy. Still have the 914 and Ive added a 957 Cayenne to the garage. Son Mike still has the cayman and now has a 928. I'm Mjs caregiver now as she is in stage 4 of COPD and pretty much bed ridden. So I do what we both used to do. Keeps me busy. Both the band s are on Facebook and friends from Florida that don't post here so I admit I have been remiss here. Now that I have the pepper wagon I'll be here more asking stupid questions...Luv2all
