Spring arrives, at least in a few warm days and sunshine!

So I get to work, yeh!

Good weekend to start the Schoolie Hunt!

This weekend is NCAA Hockey Finals BU -v- PC, Red Sox - Yankees, and Game of Thrones!

So whats up for the weekend?

work

Start trimming out my interior windows (no smartass comments Bruce-LOL) cut some dead trees out back for firepit wood, got tons of plug work to do! Maybe drink a few beers by said firepit at some point! Oh and take kayaks and gear out of storage...splashing down next week!!! Yay!!

Shrink wrap comes off the boat Saturday, golfing Newport National on Sunday, going to enjoy the weather and spend as much time outside this weekend as physically possible.

And my fire station breakfast on Sunday morning. If anyone is going to be down near South Kingstown, stop in and have some grub! West Kingston Fire Department, 390 Fairgrounds Rd. $9 per person, 5 or younger for free! (Volunteer department and all proceeds go to the station for the guys. Uniforms, scholarships, creature comforts, etc.)

Right on John with the Game of Thrones! Very excited for that!

A little bit of everything I've been wanting to do outside all f n winter!!!
O, note to self, take the bride to dinner. 😄

I should work on the lawn/yard...

Instead with the weather, I will be fishing sun up to sundown :)

Some work around the house and maybe pick up my new truck.

clean up the yard a little, trying to squeeze in some golf, boozy brunch on sunday.

Tonight the wife is having a fundraiser for Northbound puppies at Tavern on Broadway. the mintones are playing and should be a good time if anyone is in the Newport area.

Saturday opening day of trout season in RI, taking my oldest daughter out in the canoe on some local ponds. Should be an excellent weekend.

:fishin::fishin:

Baseball and hockey with the youngen, yard work, fishing, and hanging with my wife and friends....not necessarily in that order.

Still waiting for the snow to disappear from the yard. Do what I can around the yard.

Dinner tonight with my wife. Fire and beers with friends tomorrow night.

Wife starting second round of chemo today at Dana Farber,for next twelve weeks straight. Hopefully do a little yardwork tomorrow, while she rests. Get the kids throwing the ball around a bit as baseball and softball start soon. Dust off the freshwater gear, and hope I can sneek out soon for some largies. Other than that, enjoying Spring!

A Friar fan here so definitely rooting for PC against BU. Bass are finally a little more active in the lower Housatonic. Opening day in CT. Hmmm do I fly fish for trout or stripers ????? What a dilemma.

Finished up certification for Radon Measurement this week. Start in on Mitigation certificate Tuesday. So will be working weekend getting to jobs I could not get to while in school. I am going to be playing catch up all spring due to the class scheduling, but I wanted to get this business in place for the future....

Going trout fishing at a spot my grandfather and i always went on opening day. This will be my first one without him, but his love for the outdoors he gave me will be there.

Last minute prep of the boat, quick run to West Marine as flares were outdated, loaded up the boat with some rods/GoPros. Tomorrow launch Fairhaven and circumnavigate the Elizabeth Islands. Dropping the GoPro & some jigs to the bottom just to scuot out early arrivals. If we (Fishbucket Mike) can't hook'em maybe we can at least see'em! :)

Yard work mostly. Might take kids fishing for sunnies tomorrow. Got plenty of worms putting in some raised vegetable gardens for the kids today.

How times have changed.... You and Luds are now where I was when we first met back around 2002. Kids do change the decision making process, and time spent fishing. You guys should try to get back to Cuttyhunk with us though

I was hoping to get back this year but trip lines up with youngest's bday. Mike has a kid due any day. Maybe next year. I definitely miss it.
