I wrestled two more Braves tickets from marketing as a door prize for the fly fling. I can't offer a fly because I'm coming to learn. These are for the Cardinal's game the day after Labor Day (Sept. 7th). Watch Mark McGuire hit a couple more.
Please try and not postpone the fling again. It would be hard to wrestle more tickets from marketing. She's too tough.
The email habitat@georgia-outdoors.com is supposed to go to flytyfish, but I don't think he is getting them. I will call him and ask if he can post the directions on the board.

Well, the president of the company wanted the Sept. 7th tickets and it's a good career move to let him have them. He did give me the Sept. 8th (7:40PM)tickets instead. That's Wednesday and still the Cardinals. I mailed the tickets to Aaron today just in case marketing flexes her muscle again. Hopefully, they will make it the 30 miles to Marietta in three days.

Doesn't look like I'll make it this time, fellas and ladies....believe it or not ( insider info here) Lowe's has us ( the sales\ customer service folks) putting up the steel racks in the new location. So now I can add Construction Worker to my Resume !
I should be in top shape for the fall season, after climbing the 25 ft. racks and installing the steel beams.( "...son, your grandad remembers building that store...")
So anyway.....I guess you'll all have to get along without me this time..sorry.
But I guess things then can " PROGRESS UNHINDERED" as Aaron once said.....I got a PC and I told you I was gonna do things with it http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/smile.gif....like watch the video of the meeting ! http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/smile.gif Thought I'd never hear that crack , huh ?! http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/smile.gif http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/wink.gif
Hope you all have fun.....
Mikie & Merrideeth...I have your swap item and it turned out pretty well, to be only the second one I've done. If I can't make the Fling...I'll mail it to you shortly after.( There is a 10% chance I'll get off and be able to go...)

EG!!!!
Thanks for the Braves tickets!!! Had a great time everyone - We need to do this more often. It's like we are all thirsty for a little tying fellowship!
You're Welcome. I was very disappointed to miss it. The water pump went out on the family wagon on Saturday afternoon and it seems to always end up an all day affair whenever I touch an engine.
I guess I'll keep buying my flies. Is it too early to ask when the next fly fling will be?
Thanks everyone for coming out - really had a good time too. How late did everyone stay?

I had a great time as well. A tremendous learning experience. I think things wrapped up around eight.

The fling was a great time. Sorry for those that missed it and sorry for you guys that left a little early. Birddog (Kyle) showed up a bit later and did his usual awesome display of tying and teaching talent. Thanks to everyone that showed. Special thanks to Johnathon for some materials, to FlyTyFish for the place, to NGTO for everythig, and to Kyle for the usual great stuff. Lets do this again real soon.

I was sorry to have to leave early. The wife had company comming over for dinner so I felt lucky to get to attend at all. I'm sorry I missed Birddogs tying. I did learn some new things and had a wonderfull time. Thanks to FlyTyFish, Aaron and everyone else. I'm looking forward to the next fling.
