It is humbling how nature can turn our status quo and expectations on their heads. I write this from Florida, where we nervously watch the National Hurricane Center web site every year from June through October (and have recently escaped major damage), and watch in awe the coverage of the destruction brought by hurricane Sandy to the northeastern US. It is mind boggling, and I am certain that the photos don’t do justice to the destruction that has occurred. Those who have been impacted will need personal resolve and patience for the long road of recovery. All of us at BTT send our most positive thoughts to all who have been impacted by the storm, and especially to our friends and fellow anglers who were in the storm’s path of destruction.
