When does raising our young ones stop?

It's never to late to take even that 30 year old fishing and show them what they have missed.

If you can get them away from the cell phone or computer to even be willing to give it a try. Most younger people grew up with a cell phone attached at the hip. They wouldn't give it up if you offered them thousands of dollars to go fishing for a couple hours. They would be on the phone the whole time you took them out.

Good one plumb, nothing like being outdoors with the kids. Though there both in their mid 30’s they’ll always be the kids and are keeping me young- at least in heart and mind.

You speak the truth there Greg. Next store neighbors are watching their granddaughter while the parents go to work. They bought this 7 month old a toy cell phone. And they wonder where it started!!!!!

As for taking them fishing, if the dang phone didn't cost so much there would be a few Whoops while out on the boat.

Excellent. So true too.
One learns more about reality in an hour of fishing than in a week or more of gaming.
Have a great weekend.🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣

“And the cat’s in the cradle, and a silver spoon, Little Boy Blue, and the Man in the Moon” Never too late IF they want to go……

Yea Butch, our middle one wants mom to help trim his trees. Not that he can't do it just that he is busy. I said tell him to read the manual.

And of course the juice is going there today to trim yet another tree. Kids!!!!!!!!

Just be an example for him Butch, remember they watch our every move. Some day it will kick in and if i had the crossed finger emoji I would nearly cover this post.

Wulffy, that song brings a tear to my eye, not for what I’ve done but for those that have.

Jer, I wonder in decades to come, will thumb / finger tunnel syndrome affect our youths like carpal tunnel has so many with problems these days.
