    Been doing OK JB. Retired, had open heart surgery, decided I better go back to work ... I've questioned that last move a time or two, but letting SS pay for my new GMC Yukon while the paycheck pays the bills. May reconsider in a year or so if my retirement accounts make a comeback ... Let's go Brandon!

    Been retired for several years and thought we were doing fine.
    The last two years have changed all that.. May have to rethink a lot of things.

    Yeah, we really need some pro-businesspeople back in DC. I lost about 20% of my retirement funds in the last year so this job has really been a blessing. Not what I was making before, but pays the bills and is an office job so not physically hard. Hardest part is rolling out at 0600 to get ready for work

    So Reggie, you say most people migrated to
    FB. Is there a group y’all went to, or just individual “friends” getting connected?

    Well Johnny, howzit been? Still living on Tombstone? I belong to about 4 different Champion groups for the most part. The rest is just "friends" from my bass club then a few of the guys from here like Stompy, Fats, Charlie206, Troy250 & Skip. Skip & Martha sold their boat and got a camper. Elm Creek sold the marina and retired, I guess. WB is well, still WB. Don't really hear from Cork Puller much. He retired and built a place on TB. Not really the same, everyone being in here like the old days but times change I guess. I retired, went through some health issues then unretired after I got fixed up. Thought about retiring again, but until we get rid of the idiot in the WH and my retirement makes a comeback, I may just keep on trucking.

    Holler at me sometime. If you ever make it back to Abilene, look me up. Always have a cold one handy.

    I'm still around and lerk every now and them. If I'm on the computer this time of year I spend most of my computer time on "Texas Hunting Forum". Been good here, just doing the ranch thing.

    Yep, I still live on Tombstone, and the name really applies right now. Water is so low my boat has been dry docked on the lift since Labor Day. Still, it beats living in Houston. Glad to hear you guys are still alive and kicking.

    I`m still around, I look on here occasionally to see if any of the old crew is posting. I watch TFF for entertainment, those guys have major meltdowns when JJ cathes "their" fish .

    No, it’s 34 feet at the deepest, bulk of the lake is in the 20’s. Anything less than 10 is probably full of standing timber. It will never measure up to Kirby, but it’s all I got.😂

    Hey, don't knock Kirby! Oops! Now JJ is going to come and claim that lake as his own too!
