After dinner

Hair cut day

After the cut, ready for food.

It's hard to capture just how large this tree is, it dwarfs the house, and it is huge.

Old picture of inside the house back in the day. It is empty now but well maintained and is a favorite place for weddings.

Went to the Princess Place today, about 15 miles from home so not a bad ride. Met a guy fishing with a kayak. He was born in the Keys so we had lots to talk about and I look forward to fishing with him. Here are a few pics of the site although they are only a small bit of the preserve. Horseback riding and overnight camp sites near the water.

Harry Tonight

I really wanted to go fishing tonight..
Rained out so I took some pics of of the boy.
Fluffy!

The Fishing Gear

After 5 trips to shop and numerous hours online I bought my rod, reel, box and tackle today. An Ugly Stick and Okuma Coronado will do the job till I can expand the inventory. Very nice stuff. I always used Penn reels but I like the Okuma, biggest damn reel I ever had. Rated from 20 to 40 #, I loaded it up with 15. I was amazed at how much the cost of good equipment has gone up. Todays trip...$210. And I'm just getting started.

The Van

I love it! My favorite ride I ever had, it got me from Phoenix to the coast of Florida, and after a new starter is running fine. Luxury and utility. Big enough to host a bed and lots of fishing gear, my Igloo and Harry too.
