Great to know they are that close to getting up this way.... Great report Chris. May have to get the cover off R2D2 this week....

I more often than not pack a banana for myself when I head out for the morning on my boat alone.... and smile... Still think it is a bunch of BS but wont bring one on another's boat. Seems to be a hang up for many.

Most Excellent Chris

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Nice. I have a bunch of superstitions. I wear the same clothes after I catch my first river fish every time I go. I hit my knees and do a quick Hail Mary before I start. I don't eat anything banana (even candies). Oh and I stay bald too just in case.

A long time ago, I caught a 38# bass. That night I had opened and closed the passenger door on the truck a couple of time for no reason. I always do that now before I fish. I know....weird!

No boat, back in the suds.

I find singing to the fish works well and breaks up a dull day

Sweet Chris. Skunks always tend to bring me good luck. My luck sucks though. I have no idea why people even like to fish with me, to tell you the truth.

Some things that bring me luck:
1. No bananas. I don't even think about them. They are the devil.
2. Earrings, they fix everything. I have three kinds of gold in my ears just to be safe.
3. Tattoos will save you from drowning. I try to get them whenever possible.
4. Space Jam = Good Luck

agree about the skunk being good luck.. I always seem have a good night when Striped wood kitty perfume fills the marsh air.
