Work schedule more than anticipated. Advisor like transformed to get I done right now mode. Everyone quit.
I’m deep in the weeds.
Bought Cygwin Nitro in April. Had it out like 5 times. Every trip something wrong with rigging. Including a bad 12 v cranking battery . Electronics still need some love dialing in.
Been so tired comming home from work.
It’s like I’m the great white hope.
So many people gone. I’m overwhelmed.
Getting ready to run a trial on third shift then run a production run the following second shift. Gotta send a courtier to the lab 2 hours away.
Oh well. That’s a snapshot of how my days going
I can’t get the new Nitro out. Shedule conflict after schedule conflict .
Bottom line. I’m not getting the boat wet. Making monthly payment and not using.
Hang on I guess hope it gets better

Yes sir! That is a dandy!

No and I sure wish I would.
Had a buyer and the 7-10 days to get title turned to 16 days and the buyer walked.
Had a couple interested . One guy actually had his wife insist on a bigger boat cause they took their German Sheppard with them . And another couple came to their senses last minute and decide it wasn’t in budget.
Now I have 2 bass boats.
Was really hoping it was gone by now

Look at where the locals are going.
Be courteous and don’t crowd em. Just the general area

I’m in the same position.
Every time I try to go. Something pressing comes up
This coming weekend no exception.
Too durned busy.

You should buy mu lund. That will get er done for ya

Will do Barron
The kids who are smiling , well that’s worth a million bucks to me.
Those that weren’t. Well maybe they prefer to smile inside.
That’s alright too
Hope they catch a bunch and the occasional big un.
That’s what keeps us all comming back for more.

Turn out was limited due to rain ( typical for me )
But we pulled it off.
Venue was local white water outfitter.
Adults are all law enforcement .
And the kids. Well the kids are special cases the FOP pays special attention to.
All victims of various hardships.
I’m in the yellow rain jacket.
The big kid beside me on black and white shirt ( only 14. Big boy ) and the kid in the colorful shirt are brothers.
They were orphaned when his father. A firefighter was killed on the job.
The little black dude next to me was one cool little dude.
First in and snatched up the red rod immediately.
They all got starter tackle boxes.
Every one was appreciative.
The two cops on the left assured me they would get the remaining outfits into the hands of the kids who couldn’t make it.

Thank you all for your support.
We will do it again next year.

And there is a winter clothes thing comming up I promised I would help with

I’ve eaten pickled suckers. Not bad.
Today you could sell em to musky anglers for a pretty penny.
Excellent musky bait

I had the same issue with my Lowrance unit. Active target
The dealer disconnected then reconnected.
Works now.
Good luck.
Expensive option. Expect it to work

Good for the both of you !!!
Kid was respectful enough for consideration of a kindness ,
And you provided that kindness.
Proud of the both of you

Gonna go for crappie but white bass more likely .
Don’t care really. Just need to get a rod bent !

Man what a day!
Bout 13 1/2 hours with a machine I despise.
Course can’t sleep. Working half first and all of second shift
Easy day tomorrow.
Prep and ship a painting to my son,
Get tomato stages and install same
Go to eye doctor over some documentation stuff.
Then spend a couple hours with my bride. Evening.
We ain’t played competitive shuffle board yet.
Sunday’s the day. 96 degrees with wind out or the SW at 10 to 15.
Play the cards your dealt !
Will report in
Wish me luck

Exactly what I sayin.
Un imaginable challenge but we Americans have come back on top of a lot of stuff when Ute the number ONE piriority.

Gotta say. I have an AR style rifle. Set up for distance work.
I’ve been extensively trained , am proficient and am a responsible , stable citizen.

Also gotta say, does everyone have the okey dokey to own such a weapon ??
Im torn on this . But obviously those with proper training , skill set to be effective , and the degree of responsibility to own such a weapon should be allowed to own one and to carry the burden of that responsibility.

Spray and pray is for thugs and armatures.
Precision and knowing the gravity of your actions ..:
