I just close my eyes, turn to the sky, and imagine snowflakes landing on my face. If that doesn't work, I go drink beer.

It was fifty-two last night. Great night for sleeping with a light cool breeze. Tonight we have a little more wind for the S.W. and some fog. It's going to get more humid as the week goes on, but the water temperature is sixty-eight. Striper fishing is picking up and the lobsters have slacked off a little. It's a far cry from what it will be come January with thirty feet of sea vapor and frost on the buoys.

You must be in Alaska or Canuck territorries and I envy you lad , We hit 60 this week on lows but I could live eating lobsters . IF you can find ICE I have Visa card and augers etc . LOL

Come on Scotty, give us the lowdown on you and G's trip. I was waiting on chat this morning and you didn't show up to tell all the "STORIES" of the trip.

C.C. · « **Reply #307 on:** Jul 28, 2006, 09:08 AM »

Glad to hear that you and G had a fun time Scotty. I've found it to always be enjoyable meeting and fishing with guys from here and MFF.

Man- I'm not usually one to complain about the heat as I work out in it and it pays for my numerous bad habits...

But I sure could use a few cold days about now!

Heat index of 110 today, and the temp hit 102.

SOMEONE IS NOT COOPERATING WITH MY SEPTEMBER ICE FISHING PLANS

pegasus · « **Reply #311 on:** Jul 31, 2006, 07:13 PM »

We've had more thunder storms and heavy rain this summer than I've seen for a long time. It gets real hot on the mainland and when that cool ocean breeze hits it watch out. It has rained so hard the last couple of weeks it's hard to drive. My lawn still keep on growing with the perfect combination of heat and water. When I'm not out lobstering I'm fixing phones. I wish people would unplug their phones and computers when they hear thunder. That surge protector doesn't do much good when it gets hit with 50,000 volts. That's another good thing about ice fishing, no thunder storms.

Skipper · « **Reply #312 on:** Jul 31, 2006, 07:18 PM »

No rain here! Its dry and crunchy! The corn is gonna die and there is no way we are gonna get another cutting of hay.

Stay positive guy's. Maybe this is just getting rid of all the heat so when winter comes we will have a good cold one.

This heat sucks. We have been without air at work for about 3 weeks and today is the backbreaker. They are installing the new one as we speak, but it is already 85 degrees in my office and they will not be done until tomorrow.

Time to give the neighbor kids chocolate bars and send them home.

Paybacks are a B&@ch!

Can you say bath night!!

Byron/PA · « **Reply #324 on:** Aug 03, 2006, 06:32 AM »

After stumbling through today, I have one more day at work before starting an early retierment

I'll have to pick up something on a very part time basis to cover the cost of health insurance

But the eight hour work days are pretty much a thing of the past, at least we hope so.............

congradulations byron, i tried taking courses in college for retirement, but no schools offered them?
well, im 30 now, only 25-30 more years to go

BJ · « **Reply #326 on:** Aug 03, 2006, 09:25 AM »

Byron,congrats on the early retirement. Now you will have much more time to spend on the ice!!

Icenutter · « **Reply #327 on:** Aug 03, 2006, 09:57 AM »

I think he takes an early retirement every year based on how many days he spends on the ice.

Byron/PA · « **Reply #328 on:** Aug 03, 2006, 11:22 AM »

Ohhhhhhhhh Icenutter, you know me to well

Hey archbishop, I'm 43..........If you'r 30, it's time to start some serious planing. My personal feeling is that it's better to retire early in poverty that later, perhaps still in poverty. Someday I might look back and regret this line of thinking, or not. Like I said, I'm going to have to do something on a parttime basis, probally till the day I die, not sure what yet.......

hopefully this 401k thing pays off, plus the wife makes good money, hopefully she will work until shes 70 so i can retire early
