Mr. Tani was the head of the Bureau of Automotive Repair when I had my Quality Tune up Shops, Ed, Alan myself and brother Tom all went to Mclane High school in Fresno, albeit different years but a small world for sure and the Tani's are as classy as a family as you could ever find
poor tim walked into the garage and was immediately put to work. we would never treat friends like that, only family..... ;D
True sportsmen and good friends indeed! Looking forward to next year already. Got the bug so bad I'm back in SD, going out on the New LO-AN going out for 1.5 days to chase Blue fin tuna; they landed 51 for 22 anglers yesterday. Another angler pointed out John Collins is on our our boat, should be a great trip. Thanks for introducing me to a whole new level of fishing!
Nihon-no tabemono, oshii desu yo!
Nice- Nick should put you on them if they're around. Great boat and a great family has ran it for years.
