I got a new 4 stoke last night and I thought it would be a nice touch if I just hung around the house today doing garden work and boiling up the lobsters that were on special this morning.

[Gerritt]

Roy, you picked up a new motor? What did you get?

 

Mmmmm Lobster....

here in NW Ontario our season opens next weekend. besides that our lakes are still ice bound. it will be a miracle if they are open for the opening of walleye season.

Gerritt, I got a 60hp 4 stroke Mercury (tiller ) and a 70 lb Minn-Kota Edge 24V. I'm happy as a pig in poop. They'll install it/them on the 20th.

[Whopper]

Dang Roy lobster sounds great , I'm in the kitchen myself this am nursing a pot of sauce and making some homemade meat balls. After it's done tomorrow it's going in the freezer so I can't take with next week to feed a few hungry fisherman.

Wife's car had to be towed into our mechanic's service center last evening and she will need the wagon to get to the community yard sale in town later...Too far to walk over to the "Manor"...maybe after supper...

 

I still have some work to do on the "Tin" and a bit of carpentry work on the dock...(build a new and longer gang plank as the ice moved it out a foot or so)...and replace three "spongy" 2x4's on the back section...Oh ya...Make three new steps out back for the porch...getting the old ones off will prob take me all day...LOL

 

Dang...they never taught us any of this stuff in accounting...

Pouring down rain and has been raining all morning.

My grand-daughter plays T-ball Miracle League Network and her first game is this afternoon. Ain't gonna miss that. This league was formed last year and lets young kids with disabilities play 3 innings of T-bal. Everyone on the team bats each inning, everyone scores, and the last person up in the inning always hits a home run. Game ends in a tie. Sure is inspiring to see kids with a variety of disabilities, including wheel chairs, breathing machines, etc. play and have a great time. Ani't gonna miss it .... if the rain stops.

 

Today ... I have a good excuse.

At least i can still do fishing.

Season is not open here other than the stocked trout ponds which I may hit this afternoon.

[Jen]

Mow lawns,

Whip up something in the crock pot,

Do laundry,

Sweep and Mop floors

Dust,

Cut wood for fire tonight,

Run to Beer store,

Balance Books,

Post here,

and then...

 

Grab a rod and some minnows and I am outta here for a couple of hours...

 

Back to the job list so I can have those few moments of peace and tranquilty teasing (not exactly catching) fish... if one does wind up on my lap I will be sure to tell the world about it later... lol

 

Have a great day everyone...

 

Cheers,

i was working till now who wants to go fishing

[pikehunter]

Hers my list:

1. Can't afford the gas
   
2. Doing some yard work
   
3. Have to go to work at 5:00
   
4. Too lazy to pull the boat out of the garage.
   
5. Only slept about 3 hours last night and hoping to catch a few winks before I go to work
   
6. Kind of fun listen to my neighbours down the street argue about the concrete one of them had poured yesterday
   

And to those that went fishing today I'm going to be jealous at about 5:05 this afternoon just after I punch in and head down the stairs. Hope you had a good day!
