More Dock Casting

Saturday was a great day! Some good friends of ours, CL and Shannon, came down from Wisconsin and we went to the Twisted Conch in Cape Coral and saw the Yard Dogs. We were lucky enough to get a table right near the band. What a great party we had! I have to pick up their new CD. You gotta love songs like "Assholes Don't Sing Love Songs" and "I Pulled My Drinking Arm Muscle". We all had some fish plates, grouper and shrimp, and I have to say it was very good. We had way too many beers, but the bill was very reasonable. The atmosphere is casual and laid back. My kind of place! CL and Shannon loved the band as much as we do.
Earlier in the day I did some dock casting. I'm not calling it fishing anymore. At least not until I actually start catching fish! But I'm beginning to appreciate the peace and calm of fishing, I mean casting. It really is enjoyable. Been doing that every day. Trying different types of lures, with bobbers and without. Much better luck seeing fish by throwing some bread into the water.
Sunday was a super day! Our daughter, son-in-law, and two grand kids came in from Illinois and will be here for two weeks. We've really been looking forward to their arrival. They immediately insisted on going in the pool. Thank God it's heated! Going to be a fun couple of weeks with them. We're sending them all up to Disney for three days this coming weekend and we have some other friends coming in next Saturday. Damn, its nice to see family and friends from back in Illinois (and Wisconsin)!

Jocelyn is watching some kids program. She's got televitis! That's not going to last while she's here!

Anthony, the three year old, is the most energetic kid I've ever seen. He's non stop fun. And he cracks us up with some of the things he says and does. The girls are going to have to watch out when he gets older!

He decides he wants to sleep in the cat's favorite box! See what I mean? What a devil!
