So I can see from the date of my last post that I have been a bad blogger once again. It’s been a fun-filled week of new friends, volunteers (who are now new friends), relief work, paper work, good food, too much sun, gator spotting, eagle spotting, and fishing. And oh boy, did we fish!
And fished some more…
and a little more for good measure.
Oh yeah, and a little more fishing just to be sure.
And since a limit a day keeps the psychiatrist away…
And although it looks like I spent every waking moment fishing, I actually did engage in a few other activities. Like chasing what I thought was an eagle around the rec center for 2 hours in the 104 degree heat trying to get a good pic, but not being too successful…no matter since it wasn’t a real eagle…
and trying to get a good picture of a gator at night…
and trying to keep a safe distance, but still get a good pic of some honey bees…
and trying to get just a little better close up…
and carting around tools and supplies for a great bunch of guys from Tennessee (the Volunteer State I might add)…
and becoming the incredibly proud owner of a GJ original (although I was so excited I forgot to turn it the right way for the camera).
And now it’s time to pack a bag for a few adventures of the Michigan variety and get a little bit of this action going on.
Not sure why there’s so much white space in between the last few pictures, but I’ll try to fix it later. Right now I really do need to get that bag packed!
So, is that a pic of your crocs in your boat on your mom’s lake? I want to go so bad I can hardly stand it. Maybe I’ll just pack the boys and head up there? Let’s see, if we fly one way, is there room in that tiny car for two boys and three dogs and me? Uh, I don’t think so! Dreams, it’s what keeps us planning, right? I hope you have a great trip, but it will be hard to beat the red fishing we did this week, girlfriend!

Road trip! Plenty of room for you and the boys and the dogs at the cottage. Could be just a little cramped in the car though on the way back. The Blue dog pretty well claims the entire back seat. I felt bad for him during the time period when I only had a little 2-seater. Poor guy had to lay half on the seat and half on the floor.
