Tim,
Anyone can go down to the fish place and pick up a catfish then have a picture taken. That does not look like 35 pounds to me.

The fish fry at GC was good though.

Hey Les, looking good.

Sue, be nice to me or I'll post! Hee hee!

Wayne - there are no whole cats - in the skin at any fish market I've been in. But you're right - that's not a 35 pounder and the fish fry at the GC @ CL was OFF the HOOK!! Well done Tim! Well Done - and I'm not referring to that one batch - cause I happen to like mine crispy!!!! It was awesome brother!

I was a bit concerned with the 330 hp Cat, however, I was pleasantly surprised at its power through the gears and pulling hills.

If my wife gets her way, the Beaver may be in the yard for a while.
Wow! Lots of counter space! She'll never met that go!

Thanks Don but no need in driving to Alaska (AK), come on back down to Arkansas (AR) and we'll cook up some more. Trying to stock pile some for a group coming Sunday (Mothers Day) but there biting real good right now so it's fun and easy!

Wayne, a 35 lb catfish would not be that tasty, I go for the 2 to 5 lb ones that are just right! Mary would have a hard time pulling a larger one in! Lol

ID:	62369 Here's a copy of the original picture, an African Orchid Vine blossom I picked up off the ground in the Everglades last year. I'm editing out my hand so the flower will float over the background, much as the first flower does.

You know, I only started doing these to improve my pencil skills as a prelude to something else: portraits of my cats. Who knows when I'll get around to them now!

Rest easy now, and as people keep saying: milk it for all it's worth!

Cheers!
Sue

Wakes, wakey!

Everyone is apparently still asleep, out sightseeing, or mowing the grass. Sheesh, it's quiet 'round here!

Martin is trying to figure out how to get brake and turn signals to the Jeep w/o draining its battery, and getting both to work at the same time. It's more complicated than that, which was filtered through the fog of my non-technical brain. I helped him run an electric cable through to the back yesterday, which is in support of using a diode, but he may change his mind and use it for another setup instead. There's a Jeep forum....

It's still hard for Martin to do much with his right hand, although his grip improves daily. X-rays show his wrist is healing well and he only has to wear the splint when he's outdoors, but he's lost a lot of range of motion there, so it's time for OT now. It will be easier to work with an outside therapist than to listen to The Wife (who used to be an OT).

Wife --> Good advice ...... --> ~ --> Nag, nag, nag --> husband.

Cheers!
Sue

Good wishes to all.
Hey, I have a relative (general Carter) that fought in TN in my genealogy, but with so many Carters sure it is just a coincidence, but who knows, maybe somewhere down the line all us mutants are related, that would explain allot
