May 5

Oh what a start of the day! Partly cloudy with a breeze and 63 degrees and possible rain before the days end.

Down on the dock earlier enjoying the sun rise as it attempted to peek out between a few clouds and hearing all the sounds of nature in awakening action. The fish flopping, the birds beautifully tweeting their song and a sweet caring momma duck calling for her tiny ducklings to come along.

A hundred and 27 casts later without a keeper fish except for an 18" channel cat that I released and with the neighbors damn dog barking I begin to slide down the scale of my appreciation. That dog should strongly be called down and I wish them friggin ducklings and their mother would move on down the lake! That same call, over and over and over gets to be pretty annoying after awhile especially when you've half worn out your casting arm for nothing. And dang it, doesn't that idiot bird know a different tweet tweet that he could throw in there every so often.

To top the start off, when I received our morning dose of 64 emails there was one that has me pretty much concerned. My habit is to go down the list and do the, message/block sender, for those unsolicited ones. As I was blocking a message from a "Steven Pesick" and the question comes up do you want to block, and gives the email address. Good grief Charlie Brown, it was listed as from our email address. Now my day will need to be spent running that problem down.

You all have a nice day now, you hear me.
