Couple more pics of my tying area

For the ones interested here are a couple of photos I took a while back actually for another board thread.

Maybe it will help someone?

This shows a few containers under my table and a couple of 5 gallon ACE pales with duck feathers, lots of them. You can't see it but I have a small table that slides under my table just before this pic starts that I use for working on my feathers and such. If you saw the slid show that is the little table.

And here are most of my materials behind my chair. Everything is so full and my wife just shakes her head when she gets in here to help with something. I don't like asking here just so she doesn't see all this stuff, LOL!

Remember I told you I have so much stuff that it's crazy, LOL! That Blue Drawer thing there are 2 of the drawers that are completely full of skeins of chenille and still not enough room for a few that are in another drawer. The top white one is just marabou.

Nuts huh?

You really must have a wonderful wife Skip. Does she demand equal time and as much room for her hobby or does she tie jigs also?

No jig tying for her, but she will fish with me a good bit. She does at times get en eyebrow up when new things come in.

She doesn't have as much free time as I do since she in healthy and is about 9 years younger than I so she works as the court clerk for one of the 2 JP's here. Also has a side job doing books for a guy that does cement work. And we are both on the board for our home owners association here.

She is a good wife and was quite a find. We have been married for almost 30 years now so I think it will last, LOL!

Hang on to her Skip. A great wife is hard to find...especially if she loves to fish. My wife and I have been married 39 years. I fish. She will go to the lake and read. I tie jigs....that is why my setup is in the shed. We have year long great weather down here so I don't get cold, and I clean up my area as needed.......once a month or so.
