  • Hello USA – Allright so I have a bad habit – Can you cast the first stone? – Man speaking of casting – Won’t be long now – Yep – There is one of sadams get aways -  That dude had it made – Sure glad to see it being used by our soldiers now – Can’t imagine what all that dude has encountered in this war over here -They so deserve the luxuries butt had- So even at home its always relaxing to go fishing after a good days work – Most of us don’t work like these guys but its still relaxes me – I many a times would go to my fishing hole straight from work – Been known to get the minnows on the way back to the shop in the work van – I always had everything else in my trunk – Yep you know your a red neck when you take the rental car back with small hooks (my eyes are poor) stuck in the trunks carpet – Some of the best fishing I have encountered was in November – The sand trout are running – My first x wanted to go fishing on our honeymoon – ( I should have known she was fake) – We were fishing and this man came up and asked me if he could buy one of my fish – I asked him why – He said to catch bigger sand trout you use cut up trout – They are cannables and enjoy eating their wounded etc- I gave him one and the memory of getting one out of the cooler  was cold and slimmy – Looked like snot running off my hands from the fish slime and cold!! -(sorry but it did look like snot)- So looks like I just talked myself into making that little journey and go check them out – There went 2 days – Thats ok it still leaves 12 – Yes some of them are planned – (Bubba) The big race at Baytown is the 26th and 27th – Thats going to get my lungs back to where they belong – Hope all have a Beautifull Thursday I know I am – 5 days and a wake up man I need this one – Don’t forget to HOLD THOSE HEADS HIGH AND GOD BLESS ALL

  • 5 days and a wake up… WHOO HOO :) Have a great day John!!

  • The thing I like best about fishing is EATING the fish. Once our neighbor brought home a real mess(70 or more) of crappie and brim(?) and showed me how to clean and filet them. I didn’t even mind the slime thinking how that fresh fish would taste. 5 days…time flies when you’re having fun? (lemon juuice takes off the smell of fish) JaywalSC

  • I love fishing and so does my family. Don’t like to cook the fish though. Thanks for stopping by. We just have had a bad couple of weeks. Now have an aunt in the hospital that they expect to die any minute. She will make the 6th funeral in a months time. Obviously I don’t handle them well. Hubby has gone on his deer hunting trip until Sunday. Said he only got three hours of sleep last night…. and he loves doing this why? LOL. Take care John and give those little beauties a hug for me when ya get home.

  • wooo hooo! keep counting!

  • It’s getting closer everyday. Dont let them give you a hard time–everyone is addicted to something-cigarettes-tobacco–alcohol-food–something-and if they tell you there not addicted to something-then their addicted to lying !! Have a good one over there. 48 in North Texas this morning

  • Kinda looks like our version of Rollover Pass.

    Love

  • Only 5 days to go! Look out Texas…Here he comes!!! I haven’t been fishing in sooo long, Mickey and I used to go all the time, but now with him away from home all week, he doesn’t want to go anywhere or do anything on the weekends …o well except hunt lol! Maybe , me and the kids will load up one evening and go We really have no excuse not to We have a big pond here and also live like 4 miles from a creek and  Lake D’Abonne…plus we have all the shiners a person can use! See I have a fish pond supposed to have Goldfish, or Koris in it, but Mick put 13 shiners in it, now they’ve multiplied..I bet there is 300 in there now!

    Have a great day John..Stay safe…Linda

  • Oh John, That is so exciting that you will be heading home to see those babies soon.  How long will you be in Texas.

    Life is beginning to get back to normal here following Wilma (I really think it was just Fred in drag for halloween).

    Jason and Valerie will be coming for a short visit this weekend.  We are soooo looking forward to seeing them.  I hope you will be in the states long enough to visit with them too.  Of course Jason thinks the world of you, but so does Valerie. 

    Take care.

  • Fresh fish are the best.  The town I live near has the second largest natural lake in the state.  Lots of fishing in the summer and ice fishing in the winter.  Sounds like you are getting lots of things planned for when you are home. Hope you are able to do it all and have fun.

  • I hurled a big ole stone, but dag gum it, landed on my foot…

  • Yep that’s me in the profile pic.  Had that taken this summer, along with some others with Allan (Like the one on the right side of my page…that’s Allan and me). 

    Bowling, well…we suck, but we’re having a good time.  Currently in about 12th place out of 14.  Hoping to win tonight though.  Gotta get lucky sometime!

  • That’s so exciting that you’ll be able to hold your babies in your arms :) I bet you can’t wait!

  • You just keep on trying to kick your habit… IMHO smoking is WAY worse than dipping anyway, because you stink other people up with the smell of your habit.  So dipping isn’t so bad.  Of course, the mental picture of someone trying to spit while riding 80 MPH on a motorcycle was kind of disgusting, but I’ll try not to think about that.

    As far as fishing, I like everything about it!  Except for baiting the hook.  And touching the fish.  Basically I like to hold the pole until something bites, and then I jump up and scream like a girl for someone to come reel it in for me.  And take it off the hook.  And clean it and fillet it.  Then I don’t mind cooking it along with some hushpuppies and then chowing down!  But only if there are no bones.  Okay, so I’m not much of a fisherwoman.   That wasn’t so hard to admit.  I really wanted so much to fit in with all your other readers, but I guess I’ll have to wait for the next opportunity…

  • Awwwww fishing….theres another story for me….hahahahaha  I love to fish as does the whole family.  Nothing any better than sitting on a pond bank somewhere, catching a few rays and basking in the beauty of Gods wonders around you.  I did post a pic of the lamp, everyone wondered where it was….hehehehehehe!   I did have good intentions.  I know your really counting those days down and I can’t wait until your home and fishing…lol  You take care and be safe and I will catch ya later.

    ((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))

  • Hi John, I wanna go fishing, too.  I liked winter fishing here in MO, but not after falling in the river.  Nope, didn’t like it after that.

  • One day at a time is the only way you are going to get your days off, and that is if Jesus doesn’t come back before then.  Funny thing how people worry about getting killed and such but the thought of the Lord of All coming back and taking His people home is far fetched.  It could happen now, or now, or now, or now, or before I finish this post.  As I was writing this post I had the expectation that He could actually come back.  Well, if you are reading this post, He hasn’t come back yet but He could still now, or now, or now.  No one knows when and most people live their lives as if it is a myth.  Well if He doesn’t come back before your R&R, you are still booked and paid to attend a 2 day motorcycle safety course on the 22nd and 23rd so you can ride this big bike safely.  So that is 2 more days booked and that leaves 10 days to do other stuff.

  • ok, so you got me all worked up with all of this fishin talk! lol….

  • well well wel whats up i like my layout lol do you??/ so ya im out with ahug and a kiss like this lol
