This and that

Worm from another angle. I also went fishing with my daughter.  Now that was a different experience, as she is an experienced fisher woman.  She had not only fished with night crawlers, but leeches, and had no qualms about putting either on a hook.  So, when we went fishing together at a really great lake in Idaho, she baited my hook almost all the time.  Only occasionally, when she was way out into the lake casting  for the big one, did I have to resort to the old pliers trick.  But, we did catch some nice ones.  Our only problem was stopping when we caught our limit so we wouldn't get a fine.  So we spent the rest of the afternoon contemplating how we could keep fishing and hide our catch.  I don't recall doing that though, being the forth right people we are.

It's getting to be about the weather down here that drives us back up north, hot and humid.  By the time I get finished with my run, work in the yard and then go clean up, I'm pretty drenched. Then, by the time I get showered, hair dried, makeup on I'm drenched all over again.  I hate that humidity.

Talk about drenching, we just had a series of good down pours that provided much needed moisture we have been really missing this winter.  Now we're waiting for it to dry up enough so that we can get out and gather up all the dead bougainvilla branches strewned over the yard that I cut down this morning.  If you know bougainvilla, you know how lethal they are, with their long sharp thorns. I certainly don't want the liability if someone happens inadvertently into them.
