HOT

It has been very hot in North Alabama and we have had a little trouble coaxing the fishing into taking out bait. It is difficult not to jump in the water instead of throwing a bait and waiting on the fish to bite.

Even though the fish haven't been tearing it up, the time spent with my son on the river is time well spent. There is always the constant struggle to keep everything on the boat in good working condition, but that is what you get when you have a 1977 boat.

The trip to and from the water are fun because we always seem to listen to some good music picked out by my son of course and we seem to listen to a lot of Johnny Cash which is fine with me. Any time spent with you children is time well spent and when it involves being in the great outdoors is just icing on the cake.

Fishing

I have been able to spend a little time fishing with my son. We haven't caught a lot of fish, but we have had loads of fun. We have been doing a little creek fishing as well as fishing on the Tennessee River. We have most caught small bream in either location and that is fine with him, which makes it fine with me.

The time spent outdoors with someone you love is time well spent. It is wonderful to see him enjoying fishing, and observing wildlife as we search for some fish. It is truly a blessing and although I don't get to spend nearly as much time as I would like, every minute is precious.
