I bought a coffee grinder way back to do my own dubbing . Finally started to do just that. I look for colors of yarn that are different along with fibers. Wool works as well,but I like the yarn so far.
From this,to this, to that . About 2 foot strands make a baggie. No, not that kind of baggie,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
We ended up with a beautiful two bedroom, two bath place right at Apache Pier in Myrtle Beach. Weather has been awesome with daytime highs in the high 70s almost every day. To top it all off the bite has been the best I have ever seen. Blues, whitings, sand perch and even a few Spanish mackerel (we haven't caught any of the mackerel but we aren't fishing for those).
Today was exceptional, hit the pier at 8 am, it opens at 7 but it was raining so we woosed out. You are allowed two rods per person, I got my first line out and set and it was all out action from then on. Limit on whitings is 50 per person per day, I can't tell you how many we caught, it was stupid but I ended up keeping 39 of the bigger ones which are now cleaned, soaking in salt water in the fridge and ready to vac seal tomorrow.
Things here are so much less expensive, gas $3.66/ gal. Clothing, fresh fruit (whole pineapples $1.00 ea) booze, a 26 of CC, $9.00, we just bought fresh jumbo shrimp for $5.99/lb, mind you those prices are in US$ but even with the exchange.....
Anyway, for as long as god grants me the ability I think this is going to be an annual trip, it's a nice break from winter and a great way to recharge the batteries 😊
What to do with leftovers. Well when it's left over pizza dough and grated cheese from Tuesday and hot Italian sausage from yesterday along with a few Spanish onions needing to be used up......
You make sausage, onion and cheese stuffed Calzones.
My craftsmanship needs work but I assure you, delicious!
1. Walk the dog 4.5 inch 1oz (Casts a mile and I cover the water, and/or I'm searching)
2. Walk the dog 4 inch .6 oz (Subtle compared to the above)
3. Popper 3 inch .5 oz (Picking spots, in particular near shore and where I think the above are "too much" and better when I know the spot)
4. Plopper style 4 inch 3/4 oz (Covering water but not as "fun" for me compared to #1 & #2)
5. Never get to #5

Homemade Pizza. Nothing overly unusual, but this time was my first outing making the dough from scratch and by hand, I have no mixer.
Turned out pretty gosh darn good with the one exception being the low priced Bacon I had on hand was rather salty.
Well anyone that knows me, known I am not much for pictures but how about my cooler of vac sealed whiting fillets. There's one small bag of shrimp (cooked) that we caught when we went digging clams. It was a hoot, the shrimp were caught in a tidal pool when the tide went out and try to catch those little buggers, we must have looked like fools, boy can they ever move. Anyway one more adventure to add to the list 😊
So here is ,a picture of my cooler, about 12 bags of whitings.
