I made an online comment this evening about how I had spent some time this afternoon tying up what I had previously called my "Summer Kebari", while our youngest daughter, Libby, played with her Lite-Brite on the floor next to my tying table. The Lite-Brite just happens to have been invented by my friend and author, Reg Darling's, father-in-law Burt Meyer.
After my online comment, TJ Ferreria, who works for Tenkara USA, replied that I should call my fly the "Lite-Brite Kebari". After a little chuckle, I realized that TJ was making perfect sense! Is my fly light? YES! Is it bright? YES! Not to mention that here's our little girl, sitting on the bedroom floor next to me, playing with Mr. Meyer's invention (the same toy I played with over 40 years ago), his daughter married to my friend Reg, whos writing has entertained, inspired, and captured me for a number of years.
Good grief! Sometimes this old world and its happenings are simply amazing!
The Lite-Brite Sakasa Kebari!
I love the photo and the story!
