Hey, Bo. Good afternoon, man.

Man, good afternoon to you, too, sir.

How are you doing today?

Man, I'm doing okay. Yeah, I'm doing okay. I'm on an upswing, man. I've had just a terrible bout of bronchitis that, you know, suffered there for about 10 days, and it was pretty brutal. And, you know, it's funny. I was talking to the doctor. He was like, you know, I said, well, you know, is this contagious?

Can I go to work? And he was like, well, it's not contagious. You're fine. Where do you work? And I just kind of paused. You know, I have an upper respiratory disease. And right? It's like, you know, where do you work? Surely it'll be. And I just kind of looked at him. And then finally I told him and he's like, well, you know, whatever you want to do, man.

It's like, eh, okay.

I'm like, I'm not inhaling, you know.

I mean, it's fine.

Anyway, it's been a little hard on my moneymaker, man, my mouth the past few weeks,

or a couple weeks anyway, just haven't puffed them on my pipe a whole lot. And that's been frustrating and hard on my daily rhythms. But man, getting everything back in line. And so we're

doing well. I enjoyed the weekend. And man, it's good to hit the to hit the ground running this week. So, yeah, bring it on, man. Hopefully we can, can, you know, stay healthy. Oh, man, look, it's, it's, it's time. You know, we're all getting a little sick after getting back into the world. It's just natural. We haven't been sharing as many germs and now we're all sharing the germs again.

And, you know, like, I, you know, because I've talked to me. I was like, all right, so you've gotten your post-COVID sickness. You've gotten your post-COVID. You know what I mean? Like, it's like, like, have you gotten your vaccine? Good. You can go back in the world. Have you gotten sick after going back in the world? Good. All right. Now we can hang out. Now our immune...

I know, man.

That's ridiculous.

You hear this kind of stuff and you're like, well, you know, maybe we should leave the mass on. But no, I'm done with it if I can be. So anyway. Oh, man. Well, so, you know, I was actually traveling this last past week. Yeah, you went to the old, the Mitten, right? Yes, sir. Finally, the return of the Grand Rapids meetup. I went out to, of course, my in-laws are all out in the Grand Rapids area, and so I got a chance to visit them, see my little cousin, who is not so little anymore, and got to go fishing with my father-in-law. And the great thing is this time my kids and my cousin, or my nephew, rather, to come all with with us and and it was so much

fun and it was really something special uh you know i i love to go fly fishing i'm the only one in

the group that goes fly fishing so it's kind of a spectacle for everybody else that i'm out

there but i actually did pretty good man i caught a couple of trout this time around. How about that?
