Timed my return just right as I hope the 100 degree El Niño weather is gone. Arrived home in time for my Sweet Bride’s special birthday. I know she was really happy to get four coolers of flash frozen fish and crabs from my fishing trip to visit George. I also gave her a new fish cooker and SwingWay can opener. I think we will be set for fish fries for a while. I also brought Zeke a cooler of King Salmon and Halibut. He said Fat Cat and Hot Dog lost weight without daily table scraps. They had to eat dog and cat food — I know they hated that. I appreciate L.L. Bean more now as I had to order rain boots, flannel shirts and a jacket while on my trip. I didn’t realize it could actually get cold some days during the summer in British Columbia. See politics as usual here and everywhere and Coal Ash trucks now rolling daily toxic waste into Putnam County. Can’t wait to see the Hiram Little Statue unveiling next Wednesday. Amazing job and great for Putnam County.
