Thanks for sharing, for teaching and for adding humor to this site.
I truly wish that the best of the above images will be considered the least of your next 5,000 posts, Keep up the phenomenal work!!

Humble gratitude to you my friend
You have been and continue to be a huge part of what makes this place THE place to share and learn. Your thoughtful and constructive (nits ) are of great value to me as well as so many others here. I feel I do not express that enough so I'm taking advantage here
Tom, it has been such a pleasure to have you on the forum. I do indeed remember your first post, I was blown away. Here is a local guy who's first post was over the top. I just had to make your acquaintance. We met, hit the water in the yak and had a fantastic time. I knew that was just the beginning of great times and experiences. It has been an absolute pleasure and privilege to shoot with you. Each time we go out we push each other and we have both gotten better and have had some incredible times doing it.
I recognize some of these shots from previous posts, I recognize some as shots you made while I was there. This is a tremendous set, a treat for the eyes, a fitting tribute to your 5K! That said, these amazing shots don't even come close to matching the experiences we have had my brother. My hat is off to you SIR, thanks for good times, the push and the friendship. From the bottom of my heart, here is to the single malt I just poured in honor of you.
It has been a blast, thanks buddy.

Yes you certainly were there for many of these shots Tim. As I selected these images for post I spent a good deal of the time smiling as I was reminded of the good times in the field my friend From that first boat ride to last Saturday, it's been more fun and good times than this old geezer should be allowed. There is nobody I'd rather shoot with buddy and appreciation to you for the tips and techniques you have shared with me. Many are in my tool box today
I'm crackin a bottle of 15 year old Glenmorangie tonight to return the toast my good friend. Shelley says what am I doin, it's a weeknight?
Congratulations on your 5000 post, Tom. This is a great set and a fitting testimony to your skilled work. You are a very valuable asset to this Forum and a wonderful person.
