Tom wrote a new post, Ever on the bird trail…, on the site Three Sheets Northwest 4 months ago
It has been quite a while since I have mentioned my continued quest to add to my “life list” of birds that I have either identified, or photographed. The search has been going very well, exceptional in fact. […] -
Tom wrote a new post, Going fishin’ …go to Minerva’s, on the site Three Sheets Northwest 5 months, 2 weeks ago
If have been following along for any amount of time, you will know by now that I like to go fishing. Ever since we left the state of Washington, we have been dragging a lure behind the boat if the conditions […] -

Time…that variable measurement that so dominates my days of late. How much time until…. Dinner with friends, the boat is splashed from being in the yard, until I don’t have to go to work anymore, until we can cut the dock lines and sail away?

Yup…we are on the hard. For those of you that are not as boat savey, that means we have pulled the boat out of the water, put her in blocks, and are doing a whole bunch of jobs that can only be done on dry land. (Continued…) -
