We are all getting close to the season...
I went to work this morning just on a hunch. Glad I did, as most of my peeps were an hour late today, or more ???
Got home around 11 and spent most of the day outside. Needed to wash the van and truck, but kept finding myself playing with the boats. Ran both on the hose, made a video with my camera...try to post tommorow. I got a bunch of cleaning done, and the vehicles got done as well. Feeshing stuff is neatly piled in staging area as it prepares to head back onto the boat. I bet most here did a little fiddling of their own today. Who worked on the boat? |

Re: We are all getting close to the season...
I looked at the V today.
But today was a very special day, my littlest one turned 6. Her name is Grace because God's Grace kept her alive when she was born. My wife's water broke @ six months with Gracie, she spent 4 weeks in the hospital trying not to move and hooked to IV's to keep as much fluid around Grace as possible. Then Gracie began having heartrate dips so they cut her out 8 weeks early. *She couldn't breath on her own and was a little over 3 pounds. *She spent 4 weeks in the NICU until she could breath and eat on her own. Now she is a healthy, happy, beautiful little girl who is 6 years old today. So I didn't mess with the boat today. |

Re: We are all getting close to the season...
I fiddled with my boatie a little today. I put the connector on the new antenna and repaired my mic.
RB, that is a great story! You and she are truly blessed. My wife and I are in the process of adopting an 8 1/2 year old girl. She has lived with us for about 6 months now. She has adapted well, but there are a few socializing issues that need attention. But all in all, she is a great kid, and daddy's little girl (although I can't get her to help me work on the boat?). |

Re: We are all getting close to the season...
No kids at my house unless we borrow them from somebody. *No boat for another week or so. *The weather was phenomenal here on the Northern CA coast today so I fiddled in the greenhouse (this year's tomato plants are 5" tall already). *Also spent time trapping gophers while wearing shorts, sandals and a t-shirt for the first time this season. *I hate gophers and I set a personal record today by sending 5 of 'em to meet their maker in one day.
Not sure what to do with the carcasses. *I usually leave 'em out for the raccoons and skunks but I'm thinking of mailing them to PETA so they'll get a proper burial. |

Re: We are all getting close to the season...
Boat??????
Do I own a boat... Ohhhh yeah, I won't see the V until May. Maybe in April it all depends on if I get bored at home and I want to make a trip to Lewes. TUNA, you are helping the animals more by letting the gophers for the preditors. I think PETA people should be used for drug testing. |

Re: We are all getting close to the season...
Tunahead...suggest pair of Jack Russell Terriers to relieve gopher problem...they will bring the pre-tenderized Gopher carcasses directly to you, at which point you can lay 'em into fresh hot-dog bun, add French's Mustard and forward to the poor starving bass turds at PETA... ;) ...

Re: We are all getting close to the season...
Work on the boat? More like ride on the boat :D
Headed to the Rock at 1pm, launched, rode to mother-in-laws house, picked them up, rode all over. But I definitely need to do some work. My Fishfinder is on the blink. Won't power on. I hope to goodness its just a fuse...we are heading to the beach in 3 weeks and I've got to make sure its working even if I have to replace the darn thing! Also need to replace my windsheild supports. And my vent hose from the fuel tank has a leak in it. I get fumes if I fill the tank to full. So, as you see I've got my work cut out for me. :-/ |

Re: We are all getting close to the season...
Reel, I had to send your comment on to Janine. She is the one person who hates gophers as much as me. Seriously, I tapped on the window of the house yesterday to get her attention. I was standing on the lawn holding two traps with each with freshly caught wiggling gophers in 'em. She literally jumped up and down clapping her hands.
