The bobbers would bounce a couple of times then we'd have to reel in and re-load. This led Captain Tim to quip again: "Just like a blind coyote, eatin' from the hoof up."


If it hadn't been for the good conversation, excellent scenery, relaxing activity and the beer, it would have been a wasted day.


Regardless it was a fine, fun day and I'd do it again...with minnows or dew worms.

Combining the first two I resolve to resist stupidity or lies in politics or politicians.  Resist being fed lies.  I further resolve to resist blogging political crap.  The U.S. will right itself, or it won't.  The country will embrace Trumpism or it won't.  The people will confirm their values or they'll for…
