My "Advanced" birthday surprise.

Post by chris4570 »

I got a call from my mom this morning at around 10:30. My step-dad and her are supposed to be coming down from Waubashene to visit. She says they are at Advanced Taxidermy, and I need to come up there with my van. Ok.

Weird.

Why?

Well I caught a pretty good sized musky a few years back, 2007, turns out they have been collaborating with James and Shawn since last September.

I also almost on a few occasions, like 2 weeks ago, stumbled upon my picture/fish in the back shop.

This is what I got today.

Now that is a birthday present!!!

Thanks James, Shawn, and of course my mom, and step-dad, Glenn. The fish/display looks phenomenal. Even the wife likes it!!!

The pictures really don't do the work justice.

So when were you more surprised? When you hauled that thing to the side of the inflateable boat you were in or when you picked up the mount yesterday??? :D :D :D
