glad its warming up for you, wish i could say the same but i'm afraid winter is here, can only get worse husband says a big snow storm is hitting out west and it will head this way. if it does.

going to hibernate til its time to go to the dr and then head south
we won't be able to fish this year , they drained out little lake, not sure about the main lake but seeing as its fl i can buy fresh fish, just not bream, course theres other creeks and rivers close by (friend sent this for us)

I doing fine, Sharron. That pic certainly looks like it should hold bream!
You'll be on the road before you know it, and having a fresh fish dinner!

yes, it also holds some trophy large mouth, small mouth, and what we call a mud fish,(bowfin) caught one in the spring, was surprised it didn't break my line but probably weighted 7 or or 8 lbs, daddy always killed them(they can live days out of the water )cause they like to eat little fish and didn't taste to good unless you knew how to dress them and cook, i guess theres a secret to cooking them and it was easier to catch something else

I think I’ve actually driven it a couple times, that part isn’t so bad, but I can’t really drive it with the trailer on it and suck at backing it up plus I’m a little nervous to drive it on hills haha I think I should practice though. It can’t be that difficult.

I suck at backing my GT with little dump trailer as well. LOTS of back and forth, too far left, too far right, forward, back, repeat. I'm told that it is harder with a short distance between the pin and the wheels, easier with bigger regular roadworthy trailers. I'm going with that!!

The only thing to "worry" about on hills is if they are steep. If they are, don't go across the slope, go up and down only.

we won't be able to fish this year , they drained out little lake,

Why? Trying to make room for the next hurricane?

That makes sense!!! Glad it’s not just me haha and glad it’s easier with a real trailer! Cause I was thinking I could drive this as practice for getting a real trailer haha

And thanks! That makes sense.

morning debby

no, i love my chickens too much, just thinning the flocks, will be keeping about 20 chickens, have a friend that i pay to take care of them at his place, he says he has to go out to feed his animals anyway so what a few more. i have one old hen thats at least 7 or 8 years old, shes been a good chicken all these years and still lays every other day in the summer for me, not to mention going broody and hatching so as long as paul will babysit i'll keep a few
i hatched out around 40 or so this year, these are the ones i didn't want

Glad you can keep some of your flock Sharron! Especially your old girl, sounds like she's earned a forever home

Good morning all!

Good morning DMC! I suppose by the time this gets posted, you'll be on your way to watch over the kiddos. Hope they'll be good for you today!

Good morning everyone!
61°F, cloudy, no wind.

Everyone make it a great day!

Sounds like a perfect weather day Sean...enjoy!

Wish I could go visit my grandkids and sons.

With the holidays coming up, will they maybe be able to come for a visit Cap? Sorry, I can't remember how far away they are. It's tough missing the ones we love

NO, no snow storms! (Unless they are west of you and east of me )

And no to hurricanes too!

to be honest don't really know but i know everyone that fishes was complaining about it filling up with sediment from rain storms, and alot of people would also like some of those stumps taken out but others always vote it down so stumps are still there but at least no one can make waves, would rip the bottom out of the boat if they hit one of those running fast
