You all thought 💭 I was saying goodbye too you. WRONG !!! Even if ya don't like it I'm still here, and still consider you all my friends. All I do is work anymore, it's getting old. Have to walk by my boat every day sometimes a couple times a day. That's tough to do know I live 40 miles from the Flaming Gorge. Every day my friends send me pictures of there catch, and big fish. People that bought my Rods and that I tot how to catch monster lake trout. I get invited every day. Every day I have to say I'm to busy. Every day I work from daylight till past when the sun goes down. Basically, I HATE my life I hate this business.,and are harbouring some I'll feelings towards my family. I'm carrying a big load of resentment. I sold my hounds, I sold my mules, I quit hunting big game and water foul. So I could get a few days to go fishing. Well, that's been squeezed down to a 3-5 days a year. I had my boat in the Gorge 4 times in the last two years. So while it's still in new condition,,,,, I sold it today to a friend that goes all the time. My Brothers will be happy cuz that's 5 more days a year that they can screw off. When I'm dead and gone they might hire 5 or 6 more guys. But will never find another IDIOT like me. Sorry guys had to get that off my chest.
Sorry for your loss, Egg. I hope you retained visitation rights 😁

My deepest condolences Egg. That sure is a beautiful boat, and I'm sure,setup just the way you wanted it. I hope your "friend " has the courtesy to take you out now and then. The old saying is NOT true. Your 2nd happiest day is NOT always the day you sell your boat!
Hopefully you can get off the hamster wheel sooner than later, and get back to enjoying life.....

Egg, as i was reading this i just knew there is a punch line coming and to my surprise there wasn't. Not going to say there are prayers heading your way. Nor come up up with a cure for what you are feeling. Also wont say the Lord closed that door and another will open in time. More going on here then just that sharp looking boat going to a new home.
But i will say never say sorry for venting and getting things off your chest. We are here for you in any way you want to reach us. Email, text, the stage and even the phone buddy. Don't let the crap that life dishes out stay bottled up.
Oh man! It is time for slow walking and low talking. So sorry about the boat...and the mules, too. I've only fished the gorge a few times and would live on that water if I could. You have found yourself in that group that will focus on the job and are able to do it. In short, screwed. Oil sales will increase, money will come in, you will get help, sooner or later.
Until then, we all feel for you.
what kind of work
how old r ya
Sorry to hear but glad to listen! You will find time soon to go out with your friend on the boat hopefully!
