Vacation was awsome! Started off the week last Saturday by finally getting a turkey for the season then headed down to Buggs Island for the week. Had some pretty good luck with the bass, cats. The boat did give me a little trouble but it was nothing too major. It was a solid week of fishing and beer drinking! So here I sit on a Saturday night with some ice cold WATER!!!!

I was beginning to wonder if I was going to have to go to the store and get one myself!
I think the voltage regulator has crapped out and it quit charging the cranking battery. I gotta test it tomorrow. I just replaced the onboard charger last season and I went with a two bank instead of three bank. Also, had a little go round with my trolling motor foot pedal......I won! I had the parts to fix that so it was no biggy.

Hey everyone,

Whats new?

BBQ'd tonight, found an excuse to light the chiminea. It was full of corncobs...and lets say the flames got a little out of control







Of course Randy has to put his hands through it.

Also I have to show off the quality of pictures my LG Dare takes:



I hope everyone else is having a good night.

Sheldon I think what you said about helpin out a guy whose getting his *** beat...is pretty damn noble. I feel the same way. Only fights I've ever gotten in, I was trying to break up a fight that had already started.

One time in particular, the girl made a not-so-wise decision to pull my hair. My grandpa Larry was a boxer, I have a mean right hook, and all bets are off at that point. Wrong decision.

Its been good John. Just been hanging out with Randy's parents all day today. We went out to their new house today, or, eh, the partial foundation and piles of dirt that will be their new house. They bought 20 acres out in the country and are having a house built, custom to their specs. Pretty dang cool. Other than that, didn't do a whole lot. Randy and I went and poked our noses into some gun shops and cruised around town, sat outside a lot. Beautiful day here today.

How has your day been?

Not too bad. Last night, they had a tornado warning in effect until dawn this morning. Luckily, it didn't hit here. Otherwise, pretty uneventful. Kids have been playing with my niece and nephew all day and finally just wound down and went to sleep. Going to the in-laws tomorrow for dinner and then to Mom's later.

Ahhh rowdy kids. Always fun.

Yeah mother's day tomorrow. We bought Randy's mom some roses, and also some stuff for his sister and his 95-year-old grandmother. lol.

I am sort of dreading tomorrow because I am going to have to call my mother. If I don't I'll get a sobbing voice message...and she'll call my sisters and they'll get to listen to her cry on the phone. If I do, I'm stuck on the phone for 3 hours listening to her sob story.

lol sorry. I don't have the best relationship with her. I was raised by my dad. Mother's day always freaks me out, because I know its going to be drama for me either way.

I saw those pics on facebook, thats awesome, i was curious why those flames were so big!!

I love when a chick can stick up for herself!
I was never really one for going and looking for a fight, but I sure wasnt one to turn away when they came looking for me.
Im all (or at least i try my damndest) about fairness though, not just in fighting!

Heya John!
