What would you think if you looked down and saw a guy fishing wearing a sarong? 

 

I wear my civies to the lake [at this time of year]. I prolly should given my anti-social streak. I did/do wear a very official looking cap from the fed govt and my aviator sunnies. That doesn't work to keep folks away. They ask who I work/ed for. I've had people thank me for my service ....I wonder if they know I invented pot.

 

Caught a few gills and 2 bass. One a dink and the other, a large dink -- 2lb. On 4lb line... makes for some fun.

Watching the Michigan v Minnesota game and I hear a jazzy version from the band of Frankenstein (Edgar Winter Group).  Never heard that at a game before---pretty cool.  What's next, Zappa?

Haven't said anything about it in a good while, but when you get the chance watch some of the kids from the O'Keefe Music Foundation. These kids are amazing, it's all paid for by donations and the kids go for free. https://www.okmusicfoundation.org/

 

Here are a couple, there are many.

New bag day.  This time a gift as part of a care package---3660 On the Rise Kona blend.   3660 On the Rise is the restaurant where we celebrated our 1st anniversary, and her parents 50th.

Lots of great coffee in the islands, but none of it's cheap.  I think I paid $20 for a 10oz bag of Kauai reserve when we were there last year.

Guess they aren't flying the Heritage planes down this way. I remember seeing them in the past.

When I was about 19, I was helping replace the axel on a mobile home. we were stuck on the side of Highway 99 in Central California. Laying under that thing, just a few feet from the highway, every time a big rig drove by that coach shook like crazy and I'd lay under it hoping that it stayed on the jacks.  

Spoiler Alert:  It didn't fall and crush me.  I survived.

Hate when that happens.

Refer to post in different thread.

True, we can speed it up but not necessarily extend it.

A friend of mine since grade 5 won a reverse raffle with two others a couple of weeks back.  An Elks Club fund raiser.  His take was $2666 so he is taking me and LF out to a nice steak house at his expense tonight.  I won $100 which covered prime rib dinner for two of us that night.  The third couple struck out but are going with us.  Should be a fun night.

Ask for a bottle of Ketchup ... show them that you belong in a nice joint like that.
