  • Spent a couple days fishing recently and happened to luck out pretty good. Everyone in the crew went home with nine big bags of crappie fillets plus we had a nice fish fry while there.

    Got home from fishing and found a real nice mess of morel mushrooms which we'll probably have for supper tonight.

    Great time of the year to enjoy time outdoors and harvest some good eating as well.

    • I don't know if this is a win or not, or just confirmation of getting older but I signed up for Social Security today.
      Will be eligible to receive full SS at 66 & 10 moths and should get first payment in August.

      Nice little income boost of around $46k annually.
      I think we will just blow it and have fun.

        • In a stack of 100 dollar bills these 5 $2 bills were in it. I was surprised to see the first one, then second, so on and so forth.

            • Scored a free Weber gas grill yesterday.
              It was from work.
              They decided to upgrade and asked me if I wanted the old one.
              Literally, nothing is wrong with it.
              A $300 value
