Thank YOU all... Cas Won

The Contest Is Over and We Really Appreciated Your Support - I've removed the links to the contest but if you want to check out the premier Fly Fishing Blog By Capt. John in Stuart Florida Please click here...

--------------------------------------------------Original Post------------------------------------------------

I spend a lot of time on Active Rain reading, writing, learning and commenting.  My husband and REALTOR partner is very aware of my blogging obsession interests but he just hasn't gotten on board and started blogging himself.  But, I think I've found a way to get him moving.

He's reading blogs, often not about real estate although he's confessed he thinks Broker Bryant is one hell heck of a guy and he likes his style - and that's just from reading his posts, he's never met him.  I have to say that I had the chance to meet him and he really is the same person you read on the pages of AR, and it's hard not to love him.

Cas has been reading a fly fishing blog (his obsession), he's even entered a fly tying contest and that is where your vote comes in please click the link here to vote for your favorite fly @ The Stuart Flyfishing & Photography Blog...   I wanted to show him how powerful Online Social Networking really is...  I'm not asking you to vote for his fly, but to take a second to vote for your favorite.

I've been reading the Stuart Fly Fishing & Photography Blog and I've been really inspired by Capt. John's writing and photos, he's simply amazing.  So I'm asking for a small favor just please take a second and vote for the best fly so that I can tell my husband... "I told you so."

Hi Debbie, You just got to love Google alerts and me of course :) Your husband fly is kicking butt. That's sounds kind of dirty doesn't it?

Debbie:

Maybe he would like blogging about fishing. At least he will be busy while you are blogging.

Heather - He's not a "na sayer" - he just doesn't think he has "the gift"...  I'm working on him.

Blogging works, and I did vote for #3, but only becasue I have been Fly Fishing, and this looks like it would get the most attention from those NC Mountain Trout!!  Good Luck Cas, but 53% of the vote, looks like you have a Winner!

Capt. John might start to think the fix is in!  I just voted - - I really did like #3 the best - - striped tail did it for me.  I go lake bass fishing with my husband in the summer.  I basically hang a line in the water and drink a beer while he catches fish - - it really doesn't matter to me what's on the end of the line or if I catch anything; it's just a nice way to spend part of a day.  Blogging is also a nice, interesting, and in this case, fun way to spend a small part of my day.  Thanks for tossing something different into the mix!  Here's to "I told you so!"  Cheers!

Hey...I'm always willing to help a gal tell her hubby "I told you so."  That's a staple phrase in my household.

I voted and looks like your hubby is at 53% right now...You might want to start practicing your "I told you so."  Sweet?  Sarcastic?  So many ways to say it....
