My dentist reached out, hoping to cancel our next appointment in April.

I got the best voicemail.  
 

We drive 2 hours to our previous resident city to get dental work done. Our dentist is THAT GOOD. We opted to keep our dentist despite the fact that we moved. (He said we were not his most distant clients) to maximize the visit, my wife and I always schedule a morning appointment back to back. That way we carpool and we get to eat at some of our old favorites for lunch. We blow off the day with respect to our jobs.  So we make our appt months in advance.  
 

he left a message hoping we could come a day early (Thursday) because he wants to take every Friday off to bass fish the springtime.  Haha. We both fully endorsed the reasoning.  We do love swapping photos of fish.  
 

im glad he really isn’t a cold weather fisherman. We can go back to a Friday in October. But I’ll tell him he should at least hit October!  
 

to add:  he only fishes Comanche lake.  Shares a boat with a bud. I’m dying to get him out on a kayak with me.

That's a great story! My eye doctor is a tournament bass angler, plus a great guy and a whale of an eye doctor.

Don’t ya like dealing with like minded people. I worked at a place where I had ask for 1/2 a day off on Friday to fish. Everything was right weather, wind, moon…the owner said I couldn’t go,  unless I took him with me.

The Head Surgeon for the heart transplant unit at Cleveland Clinic Florida, fly fishes from the bank almost everyday in the surrounding waters.  This is his form of relaxation, although he only gets to do it for about an hour or two.  An amazing man.
