“The submission of one’s will is really the only uniquely personal thing we have to place on God’s altar. The many other things we ‘give’ … are actually the things He has already given or loaned to us.”

Shordy's Flyrod

Hanging out with Merlin...Grammy's goat.  :)






Uncle Dust and Dad have recently gotten in to the new hobby of making fly-rods.  Uncle Dust has gotten a bit further into than Dad.  But, Dad wanted to make Shordy a fly-rod for his 4th b'day so while we were down there Uncle Dust helped Dad build his first fly rod.  Dad says there's definitely room for improvement, but I think it looked pretty darn good!  And I'm sure Shordy will think it's the coolest thing EVER!

I think it's pretty cool that Shordy's first fly rod is coming from his Dad, and it's been personally made.  Hope it's something he keeps and appreciates forever.
