Post St Patrick’s day festivities that began at 29 degrees on Tuesday gave way to today where we are expecting temps in the mid 80’s. After a day of recovery from the band mayhem, I am in mood for two of my other favorite avocations: sailing and fly fishing. So my WFH outfit is an ode to both. Orvis has become my Achilles' heel over the past 35 years I have been fly fishing. This 160 year old company beacons me like a sirens song. I am enamored by every fly fishing store I can slither into when traveling. I’ve had two opportunities to buy an Orvis store. But the allure of owning a retail store, was shocked back into reality from my years of working in retail for 10 years (plus my wife’s family owning a venerable institution in the OKC area: Clarke’s Pastry est 1946). Nevertheless there are several items with an Orvis label in my closet. ootd Orvis plaid shirt Orvis heavy gauge 5 pockets (once upon a time they were a deeper shade of khaki perhaps 35 yrs ago) Darn Tough merino wool socks with Salmon Sperry Topsiders in blue Orvis field watch green dial Plus toys including a 6’ one piece bamboo rod manufactured April 6, 1956 (bought at an estate sale) Tight lines AND full sails brothers.
