Weekend Catch in Athens, TN

He doesn’t really like it when I blog about him …
says “oh don’t be puttin’ me on there”.
But since he’s wearing his shades …
(and you needn’t say anything to him about it if you run into him … just say you ‘heard about’ the fish … lol)

After weeks of fishing (and having some big ones sickeningly get away) I got ‘the call’ Saturday morning …
“you won’t believe what I just caught”.
Funny thing is, we had gone to a Chinese restaurant in Sweetwater, Tennessee the night before and his fortune cookie said “something you have been wanting will come to you soon”.

I knew I should have taken that cookie!

5 pound small mouth bass going on the wall …

Summer is Coming!

School is almost over … summer almost here.
I was thinking about our Charleston vacation taken a couple years ago, went through the folder and found a few favorite photos from that week.
Cool … blue … water.
Summer. Fun.

The bridge holds special significance in that we could NOT figure out the layout of Charleston for … well … the whole time we were there! Every time we thought we knew where we were or where we were going … “there’s that bridge again”. I’m actually glad we went over it several times as it gave opportunity to keep shooting for the right view …

One day it poured rain ( … so that was ‘aquarium’ day spent inside)
and the next we split up – guys to golf along the ocean at Patriots Point Links and girls to walk the coast through the Battery, taking pictures of all the grand homes.
Since those things were scheduled for later after lunch we had some free time on our hands.
So we found the ocean … and Folly Beach.

Bonnie (and Gabe) loved it:

So did I.
I’m ready to go back and stay … claiming one of those beach homes you see away off in the distance as our hideout for the week:
