This Is 40

Posted on September 15 2014

Well, not to make to much of a big deal about it, but today I turn 40.  I can't say that I am entirely stoked about it but I won't drone on though I am left wondering where my 30's went.  Time does seem to be moving along at a faster pace than I'd like.  Maybe things will ease down a bit for the next ten years, though I know that is very unlikely. 


I do have to say that I've got it pretty good.  Happily married for almost fifteen years, two bright and beautiful children, a job in public safety that I enjoy (even if it can be a bit dangerous at times), a supportive family, and a long list of friends.  I'm damn lucky.   

September also marks the sixth year that I have been writing T.F.M. and I continue to be astounded at the response that anglers and the fly fishing industry have given to fiberglass fly rods.  T.F.M. is my creative release and I have a really good time putting content together for it each and every day.

To date there are over 2,800 published posts up on T.F.M. and there have been over 1,200,000 visitors with page views are well over 2,000,000.  These are kind of crazy numbers to get my head around and I want to thank everyone that checks in daily.  A huge thank you also to the industry friends who make contests, giveaways, and a lot more possible around here.  It is greatly appreciated.

Here's to another 40 and hopefully a few more years of T.F.M. too.  Cheers...
