I got over to the office at 6:15 and made my morning
coffee. I like to have some me time in
the Am as I have my caffeine fix. I went
on out and opened the gate at 6:30 and walked back to the office to catch up on
the news. I even made my breakfast – Jimmy Dean sausage, egg and cheese. Life
is good.
At 6:45 the first fisherman came through the gate. He stopped at the window to purchase a “Day
Use” pass. I recognized him from
yesterday when he came to launch his boat and go set a“trot line. He was now going to go “see how many fish he
caught”. He was only gone about an hour
or so before he stopped back at the office.
I went out to take a look at his haul. He had a medium size cooler slap
full. He offered me a “mess” but I
declined. Judy walked up and she had to
see them also. I kinda think he enjoyed getting to show them off. Judy asked him what he used for bait. She was
surprised when he showed her ½ inch cubes of soap. He told Judy that the “channel
cats” love Ivory soap.
Judy spent the morning organizing the photos we had accumulated
over the years. It looks to me like she is keeping five for every one she gets
rid off. She has enough time here to
devote to this project. She works at it
for a couple of hours and then puts them away.
I dumped the galley and gray water tanks. After that I
filled the fresh water tank about a 1/3 and cycled the fresh water pump for a
few minutes. The pump worked fine. The rest of the day I did the usual park
routine.
It is now about 9:pm and all is quite in the park. We only
have about an hour until we close the gate. Judy is reading her kindle and I am
finishing today’s post.
Thanks for stopping by.
