WOW!! You both have earned a happy and (hope) healthy retirement. When you're giving the new owners the rundown about the regulars, just tell them I'm a nice, quiet, little old lady from Ohio. I'll break them in easy!! (ha-ha) We'll see ya in August!!! Love you both!!!

We're ...Thanks for everybody's best wishes.<br />We're not leaving the planet, you know, just going across the narrows! You are all welcome to visit any time you want.<br />Whenever new owners are found they will very likely operate the business similar to us considering our long success. Certainly they will have new ideas and will bring with them new energy and vitality. That's what happened when we took over from my dad a quarter century ago. That's called growth and is just what is needed to keep Bow Narrows moving ahead.

I can't think of 2 people that will be missed more than the 2 of you!!! Our trip to Bow Narrows lasts a week and half each July, but it fills up the whole year with laughter, memories and anticipation of our trip next July. <br />Looking forward to seeing you in July and after the sale seeing you on the lake and swapping tales and fishing tips.<br />If you ever get to Texas you will always have a place to stay. Brenda won't have to cook and Dan won't have to get our boat ready.<br />Best wishes on the sale and your retirement.<br />Your friend Larry PonsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128355011947736159.post-6573487841987779072016-03-07T17:30:42.949-05:002016-03-07T17:30:42.949-05:00Dan and Brenda,

I have so many awesome memories from my 35+ years of Bow Narrows. I will still have them. Rik and I actually floated the idea of purchasing the camp from Don. We asked him when he was going to retire...He said he already was retired! Looking forward to seeing you in May.<br />JoeJoe Overmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128355011947736159.post-81258642196316257202016-03-07T13:54:46.070-05:002016-03-07T13:54:46.070-05:00Dan and Brenda,

I'm sure that all of Bow-Narrows guests will be sad to see an era come to an end. Although the fishing will remain the same, it just won't be the same camp without the both of you.<br /> You have made some wonderful improvements over the last 16 years. Making things much better for us older guests. <br /> My only concern is that the rates will most likely go up considerably, making it difficult for some of your current guests to make the trip. <br /> Having said that, I will try to make it back to camp as many times as I can as long as the both of you are still there. I know there comes a time when we all must retire and enjoy our lives.<br /> I will be seeing you opening week once again. Wishing you the best of luck on the sale.<br /> Indiana Dave<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
