Comment by Jeffrey D. Abney on February 29, 2012 at 7:20pm: With my mom being a twin I truly believe you're closer with those cousins to the point that they're almost like brothers and sisters.....My two cousins and I did everything together from hunting, fishing, frogging, crabbing, floundering, camping, spearfishing....you name it and you could find us together back in the 70s.......These pictures show my cousin Bryan during a visit to Toledo Bend catching a great stringer of largemouth.....a big Tabby cat.....and a solo Largemouth...We had great times and as it turns out Bryan is now a trophy Whitetail hunter and I'm a trophy Bluegill hunter....I don't hunt anymore and Bryan doesn't fish but we have a lot of shared memories and have plenty to sit around the fire pit and chew the fat!!!!!

Comment by Leo Nguyen on February 29, 2012 at 5:58pm: LOL David, I'm a techno geek, love to collect data, and house plenty of info from all walks of life. Knowledge collected are meant to be spread like grass seeds throughout the info super highway as they are needed.

Comment by David, aka, "McScruff" on February 29, 2012 at 5:40pm: Leo we dont have that much backup at work!

Comment by dick tabbert on February 29, 2012 at 4:25pm: Leo you undoubtedly know far more than I. I have to get my son over to help me with mine all the time I hate to admit it but I'm a computer illiterate.

Comment by Leo Nguyen on February 29, 2012 at 4:21pm: Dick, I'm running a 6 terabytes raid backup system, with 2 terabytes active storage in my workstation. Already filled them up. I truly need one of those stand alone tower that can house up to 20 hard drives containing 4 terabytes each just to keep up with our storage needs. Lord mighty.

Comment by dick tabbert on February 29, 2012 at 4:16pm: Leo time to upgrade. you can put in a 2 or put an extra hard drive all together. We can never have enough pictures.

Comment by Leo Nguyen on February 29, 2012 at 4:03pm: So many photos. Wish I have them. Never got the luxury in owning a nice piece of film camera to snap the memories until I got first digital camera mid way through college. Now, I don't think I have enough storage capacity on my terabytes backup drives to keep up with our digital age.

Comment by David, aka, "McScruff" on February 29, 2012 at 3:26pm: Nice, Jeff.

@ Dick - I dont think Ive ever seen you so eloquent. Keep it up!

Comment by Jeffrey D. Abney on February 29, 2012 at 3:17pm: Me and my dad experienced some of the best fishing of our lives back on Toledo Bend. We talk or reference one of our trips almost every time we go out now...........It was a little piece of heaven and we feel blessed to have shared so many meaningful trips on the water!

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on February 29, 2012 at 10:42am: Hey Dick,I'm sure everyone on THE GOOD OLE DAYS relishes your stories as I do so don' t worry about keeping em short!!!!!!! I like em just the way they are and you are!!!!!!!!
