Default EPC's Road Trip Update

Well, Peggy and I left Denver at 6:00 a.m. on Sunday morning and drove to Alamogordo, NM. We arrived in time to watch the Super Bowl, grab a bite and catch a few zzzz's before a client meeting on Monday morning - so, no dirt fishin' on Sunday.

After my meeting on Monday morning, it was off to Texas...we drove down to El Paso and then across IH-10 and IH-20 to Abilene...we arrived after dark - so no hunting again...

This morning, we were on the road early and drove through Ft. Worth and Dallas to end up in Paris, TX - where I had a lunch meeting...and FINALLY a free afternoon to MD!! After heading to where my client told me about an old swimming hole (called Lamar Point) outside of Paris - I managed to dig up a Zlinc, a dime and a necklace or bracelet clasp (no corresponding jewelry) before lightning, high winds and a tornado watch sent us packing back to the hotel...

SOOOO...tomorrow it's another meeting here in Paris and then off to Galveston for a meeting on Friday and THEN...the whole weekend on the beach!!! So, if y'all can send out some good vibes for some good weather - I'd certainly appreciate it...and if any of y'all are in the Galveston area and would like to hunt this weekend - please PM me with a phone number, and I'll give you a call when I know exactly where we'll be this weekend!

Talk to y'all later!

Default A Very Good Mate of Mine is a Surf Pirate in Galveston

I'll see if I can hook you up for a hunt with him. GH is one of the hardest working pirates I know but he's got a wealth of local experience and knowledge. I'll get back to you once he returns my PM.

Cheers,

BDA
