“You are going to feel like hell if you never write the stuff that is tugging on the sleeves of your heart — your stories, visions, memories, visions and songs. Your truth, your version of things, your own voice. That is really all you have to offer us. And that’s also why you were born.”

Sunday Afternoon Fishing

Ann and I visited with Ron and Jean Like yesterday afternoon in Venice. Ron and I went fishing at the jetty in Venice. Ann and Jean enjoyed the beach and pool. Later they walked to the jetty and visited with us while we fished. I caught a lot small fish. Ron had the catch of the day with sheepshead shown above. He also caught the strange looking fish. There were lots of them eating our bait. I’ve not been able to identify it as of yet.

We are going gulf fishing Wednesday. We’ll be bottom fishing on a party boat. Looks like the weather is going to be really nice.

Fishing Women

Today was a milestone. Ann’s mother (88 yrs) caught her first fish ever. Her granddaughter, Teresa, caught her first fish ever. Then Ann caught another snook. I caught some shrimp in the bait bucket and put them on the hook.

It was a beautiful day and great fun fishing. I still haven’t been able to train Ann’s mother to “reel and then squeal”.
