So I’ve recently got back into fishing (strictly bass because that’s what I grew up doing) and for my buddies last hoorah before he pcs’s to another duty station we went fishing up in Cherokee NC. One morning my buddy ran into some folks who work with Healing Waters an organization dedicated to helping disabled veterans learn how to fly fish. Later that morning my buddy rushes into the cabin and wakes me up and says come outside. I walk out still groggy eyed in my pj’s and these kind men gave me a free fly rod because my buddy had told them I’m really interested in learning how to fly fish. I was shocked. Met up with them later at a fishing hole and I offered to take them out to dinner to repay the kindness they gave to me. Met them for dinner and when the check came they refused to let me pay for them. This saturday my mother in law and I are gonna go fly fishing or at least I’m going to attempt as she’s gonna teach me and I’m super excited. Just picked up today white river boots and waders. Thanks for coming to my ted talk and happy Thanksgiving.
