Since most of my time is now taken up mowing,
My pome time is in the back seat.
But yesterday, pooped out, I just felt like going,
And this trip turned out pretty sweet.
The fishies were up top the first hour or so,
Then crankin was catchin a few.
I think I caught 20, and let em all go,
And one scary thing happened, too.
With darkness upon me, got caught on a stick,
Til then I'd been havin good luck,
I yanked like we all do, it happened so quick,
But dork that I am, didn't duck.
The Hoodler came flying, as fast as a race,
With 3 treble hooks all a swingin,
I froze like a dork, got smacked in the face,
And felt my cheek startin to stingin.
I looked at the Hoodler stuck tight on my vest,
Just knew there'd be blood every place.
But there wasn't any, I felt very blessed,
The heavy lure bounced off my face.

Moral of the story - duck. Just duck. Or don't jerk so danged hard on a heavy, 9 hook lure at dark. Duh.
Have an awesome week, Stage Family.

Good Monday morning crew. Back to the grind for this guy..

Its National Apple Pie Day. 🥧 Maybe Mrs T will have a couple on the window sill cooling down.

43° now and 77° later with sunshine.

A water UV light install this morning and then loading to deliver another furnace.

I was talking with the Wifey about when we first met.. I remember I was feeling a bit adventurous so I asked, "Why don't you sit on my lap and we'll talk about the first thing that pops up?"

She's still not a fan of small talk....


Have a great day folks!!

Good morning folks and Happy Mothers Day to all of the ladies.

I just popped a breakfast casserole in the oven to bake and grabbed a cup of coffee.

Looks like an overcast day at 61° is what we'll have today. Maybe a shower but at least not an all day rain.

Painting and Cooking

John, an avant-garde painter got married.

Someone asked the bride a few weeks after the wedding, "How's married life, Helen?"

"It's great," she answered. "John paints and I cook; then we try to guess what he painted and what I cooked."

Enjoy your day folks!
