To my Iowa Fishing Friends

I am on my way to Waterloo Iowa for a Seminar/ open house this Saturday at Hank’s in Waterloo. I am delivering a boat on the way, so I am looking forward to seeing some old fishing friends again! Since the boat will be off the truck by then, no worries, easy access to the trucks tailgate for easy baked good deliveries! I miss those Iowa recipe’s!
For those who are in the area, here is the schedule of cookie intel to be presented. Hope to see you there!

If you run into Randy down there be sure and give him my number one tip when the fishing is tough.Try Harder!!
Enjoy your self down there.My Dad And Hank grew up together and I spent many hours in that bait shop.It has expanded but still has that homey feel to it.

I’ll keep an eye on your freezer while your “working”.

No hurry on getting back, take your time…all is under control.

Wow we need to get that line-up a little closer the red wing or metro area. Sounds like great info.

Looking forward to it!

Have fun Deano.

Who wants to take a roadtrip to Iowa?

lunch alone looks like it would be worth the drive! Too bad the wife and I already have plans.
