I most certainly picked this up in Marlborough this weekend, either at the show or at a restaurant. And I’m fully vaxxed and did plenty of masking. They say this current strain is particularly virulent, and so here I am in bed. My symptoms first appeared yesterday and steadily worsened today. If you took one of my classes or attended one of my talks, and were in close proximity for an extended period, I wanted to let you know. I hope everybody is feeling well, and I hope to kick this thing’s butt by NFL playoff Saturday!

Steve, my and I both went through this early last month, my wife much better after 4 days, me not so much. I still have few lingering issues, hopefully you recover quickly! Get lots of rest and plenty of tissue on hand.
Take care, Mike.
Thanks, Mike. I’m trying to be a good patient.
What about licking marabou? Because I know that you don’t use bat fur for tying. Right?
Get well, you know the protocol: rest, plenty of fluids, take your meds and read fly fishing and fly tying blogs, plus podcasts.
You’ll be up and out before you know it.
Yessir! We can only hope. I’m trying to be a good patient.
Wishing you a quick recovery! We can commiserate. I had my shoulder replaced last week and can’t touch a fly rod for six months, hoping to be able to tie flies someplace in the interim, sometimes life sucks:-)
I think I’d try fishing with my non-casting shoulder….a fast recovery to you, sir!
