A Hero !

[Geezer_]

I would like to give a shout out to Mr Carl Holmes. Carl was the Angler that helped my brother in law when he went through the ice in early January. I was recently contacted by the Boy Scouts of America because they would like to honor him. Seems that Carl has been involved in the scouts most of his adult life .According to his peers in the scouts he has always been a great example to the kids. In this instance he was truly a prime example of " Being Prepared "  Thanks Carl , the kids are fortunate to have you in their lives.
