Gonna be in the car for 15 hours today, as my family heads up to Big Sky, Montana for the week! Birthday is tomorrow and I turn 15, so I can finally start the driving life! It'll be a great week filled with fly fishing, zip lining, hiking, white water rafting, and more! Oh, and football season is almost upon us!

I've got my first race in over a year (due to injury) on Sunday. Looking forward to it, but could use a nice bang to get the weekend started on the right foot.

Downtown TC ...you can actually see the house we lived in when I was in Jr High ...  Haven't been back up there in a while but staying in Northport with friends and meeting up with some HS friends and fellow M Alumni who are living back there these days.

Which makes me now one of these --

going fishing, but its Friday, a day loaded with optimism. So leave the pole and tackle box at home and bring the snorkel gear and the spear gun. Just don't shoot it if you won't eat it. I prefere to eat it before I shoot, but we are talking spear fishing.

I think bass bite better at night than during the day. I think walleyes bite better in the last hour before sunset than actually after dark. I used to work nights with a good friend and we did a ton of research into this until he got married and became an adult. Then no more night fishing for him. I have been married ten years longer than he has but I never became an adult.

Unless I feel like playing Addison Oaks. That is disc golfing in the woods basically, but that can be as frustrating as heat. Unless you are playing flawless then it can be a very, very fun day. But bogies are much easier there thats why when I text a buddy I type it.  Example:  I will meet you at ADDison...They really need to go through there and cut some trees down just in the fairway because I do like a tight pu.......ah......Fairway yeah a tight fairway. Sorry lost my train of confusion.
