Well Tuesday turned out to be another almost summer like day after a chilly morning with temps in the 50's but tons of blue skies and bright warm sunshine which the weather folks are telling us this will be last couple of days like this for some time. A front moves in this weekend bringing much colder temps down into the 30's, oh well its to be expected as we start to see some leaf colors throughout the areas.
I started the day with a 6'ish roll out to my routines that begin with some quiet times to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name after posting this ramble. All seem to be holding as I make this post. I piddled around outside after a breakfast of oatmeal, honey, cinnamon, pecans, banana and some home grown blue berries. Yeow was that ever delicious which held me until 1'ish when I and Steve got back from fishing in our "mountain moms" pond. I dug or looked for fishing worms in my compost pile, but either those cold days or the dryness the past week or so drove them out and I barely found enough to take with us. So I used artificial worms and managed to land 3 bass large enough to give them a taste for supper. They had never eaten fresh water bass and they loved them. We caught several bluegills but returned them to the water as they won't hit the plastic worms. It was a perfect morning with no bugs biting you.
We came back and finished up the pasta fosule soup as the gals were off to Galax to shop. We tried to get the head off my weed whacker to no avail but Steve later saw a video on You Tube how to get it off and restring it. I'm excited for learning how to do it as it a powerful 4 cycle whacker. I fired up the riding lawn mower and almost got all of the yards mowed before the Nymark's came for supper. I'll finish the last mowing for this summer later in the afternoon today after the dew dries up. We had fried bass along with a broccoli, baked tatter and all the fixin's and a salad; once again all delicious. After the cleanup we settled into "hand and foot' for the next 3 plus hours and this time the guys prevailed in the last game. It was after 10 when I hit the shower. On a sad note the Rays lost their first playoff game at home against the Texans. Our son in law Tyler was at the game and said they played the worst he had seen all season, LATER
