Sir, you claim too much. From ER up river is my home.

Made a little sushi tonight.

good stuff

Wellington?

Christmas Eve present and past. My wife made the stocking for me in 1976. Merry Christmas. God Bless Us, Each and Everyone.

In the 2010's a Eureka Springs shop teacher was called on the carpet and a letter put in his file for having a shotgun on his gun rack in his pickup. Of course, his principal was the type that would need a sledge hammer to drive a ten penny nail into her posterior.

When I had one of those days (maybe twice), it went in the memory bank forever.

Butter poached lobster with the younger daughter.on Christmas Eve. Zoom Christmas morning and a late lunch at the sister's house on Christmas day.

Several of those picture tell me where you were, but your secret is safe. I may be wrong, but now that you are retired, it seems you fish up river more often.

No picture. Burgers and tots tonight. Sometimes my wife and I like simple.

Pork chop with mustard sauce, buttered egg noodles and chiffinaded Brussels Sprouts (baby cabbages).

I haven't posted pictures in a while. I have been making/cooking dishes I have posted before, none of which a especially pretty. Sesame noodles, hotdog casserole, baked potatoes loaded, and grilled cheese sandwiches with soup.

Meaty stew. Used skirt steak because there was no "stew" meat in the store. I may have to use it again.

As always, OA came through. Thank you gentlemen. I now have directions to get where I need to be.

I am hoping our hive mind can suggest rain gear that meets my needs. I fish only 5 or 6 times a year with guides. I schedule trips on Table Rock and the White River below Bull Shoals between March and early June and between September and late November. I am short and round. I am looking for a rain gear set, preferably wind proof, to wear on early morning boat runs as well as in the rain. My preference is bibs rather than pants, but pants with belt loops work (I have suspenders). I am not inclined to spend $500 to $600 dollars; I simply won't use them often enough to justify that kind of money. $200 to $300 falls more into my range. In other words, quality at a reasonable price. I know I may be asking for a unicorn, but if you know something that would work, give me a shout out.

Nancy and I had 7 family members join us plus my friend Larry. I tried my best to stuff them all. Tried a new way to do turkey. Meh. I hope all of you had a day as pleasant as ours.

You were kind enough to gift me some of your product. Thank you. I hope you can find someone to take up your hobby/business. I pray you and your family have an easy time. Godspeed.

Cousin Steve Crump spent his career with Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. 90% of it was in White County (Searcy). Only the Little Red flows through it, so most all of his focus was deer and birds. He must have been doing his job. His dogs were poisoned once and he was shot at twice. Somewhere on here, years ago, I shared the story of cousin Steve.

Did a NY Times recipe tonight. Cabbage Roll soup. Pretty good, but needs tweeks. Next time I prepare, I will make those tweeks and post pictures and details.

Depending on line size, a Rock Crawler runs 2-3 feet deeper than a Wart. On 10# flouro hybrid, 8-10 is a reasonable estimate. Small tip. do not grind a Rock Crawler on the bottom like you would a wart. The bill breaks. If you are going to fish 3-7 foot water, switch to the wart.
