  • Yeah I'm a redneck, I could ice fish for a living.
Hey everybody back from fla is everyone fishing greenwood this weekend.  It is funny during the Highland Lake  I had to call to see how my group was doing.  My wife just laughs at my addiction.  Topher how you making out with the little one adjust to night and day. I got the solution if you still need it.  It is the weirdest thing but it works.  My little one had the same problem.  After we did it she slept 6 hours a night, only got up for a feeding and diaper and then back to sleep.


Heaven is a Jack and Coke in one hand, a jig pole in the other and being surrounded by the ones that don't mind you do both.
