River Day March 4th 2013

I realize this is a VERY late post... better late than never.  Just as the last few weeks have been, we had another week that not everybody was able to make it down; Jay, Ted and I (Tim) were the only ones able to be there this week.  It seems like the last few weeks have really been playing havoc on everybody’s schedules.  I wish the rest of the world understood the importance of this holiday! Where have the priorities gone??!!
Anyway, we had a pretty quiet evening that consisted of the usual conversation about family issues, politics and a few other hot topics. We weren’t however able to solve anything, but it's always nice to get it out with good friends that understand.

A fair portion of the time was spend continuing to clean up from the recent storms that raised the river water levels, still plenty of work to do, but we're making low, steady progress. (Well... Ted is anyway)

We did  get a short visit from Freddy this evening, and it was short... he didn't stay around very long as the temperatures were a little bit chilly... It stayed in the mid to upper 30s most of the afternoon and evening, but it felt much colder when you walked away from the fire, which was of course, the best one on the river.

Jay tried a little fishing, didn't have any luck. However, it's nice just to back on the river’s edge throwing the line in. It seems like it won't be long before we start catching some again.

 Another great way to start the week, looking forward to everyone being able to make it next week!
