 |
|
Hello all, the last trip kinda did me in for awhile but im ready to get out there and give it a try again as soon as the elements cooperate. Definitely need to wet the hull as its been awhile since I have had the boat in the water. I also picked up a new rod and reel this past weekend while down at the Bass Pro in Harlingen this past weekend. I do like the Johnny Morris carbonlite rods, this time just for fun I bought the same name reel to see how they hold up. I also got my wife a little carry present for her birthday but that's for the hunting section. Glad to see someone named Zia has been out here and there to keep us posted on whats happening in the Mother Lagoon while the rest of us are down and healing up. I have learned that when the doctors say dont do anything and no lifting over 10lbs that they arent lying. Looking forward to fishing with my neighbor DMAC soon. Speckeld trout haven't heard from you in a bit? Have a great week. IMS

Good luck and don't overdo it Stan.
Since you can't lift anything over 10 lb. you might take someone along to lift those big reds in the boat  |

| Yeah that Z guy's always out there stirring 'em up. Does look like spring is sprung, should be some good action busting loose. I'm wrapped up for awhile but be back after 'em sometime. |

| Good to hear you are ready to get back on the water again, Stan. Hopefully this time it won't knock you down so long. You need to stay with small trout instead of those big red fish. Looks like Wednesday and Thursday should be pretty good days. Today definitely isn't with high winds and rainy conditions |

You can call me anything you like it will be music to my ears. Im so glad to still be here. I going to cherish it. Not in a hurry anymore, Im certainly not in competition anymore, it doesnt make a dodo anymore. However Steelstud or Thor sound pretty good. I actually like tindude. I can certainly take the picking. Its when they quit picking that makes me worry. Lol. I had a great time at the beach clean up they let me direct traffic. My friends watched out for me like I was a piece of fragile glass. It really made my heart feel good.

Have you started exercising at the gym yet. I started in January. Been a real pain making myself go 3 to 5 times a week, but I am finally getting used to it, lost a few pounds, blood sugar coming down, and feeling better. Going to try to get in a regime of about 5 days a week for 30 minutes at a time. If it don't kill me first I'm gonna be the healthiest 70 yr old on the board.

Hmmm. Zia, I believe has has healthiest 70 yr old on the board. He is either 65 or 70, so not sure. But either way, that is one moving person who does not stand still...

Walking 2-3 miles a day. Dont care for gyms. Lost well over 40 lbs going for another 40. Im quite active. Still being carful what I lift so I dont get blue spots on the incision scar. Those are pretty spooky. Picked up a couple of yards to mow for some older folks. I usually have more done by 9am than most do all week. Joining the corpus gun club this week have orientation Thursday. I refuse not to be active. Headed to wal- mart for birdseed. Have a great day.

| Good thing you didn't go fishing with me the other day Stan. I forgot it was Saturday in spring break. Boaters were crazy. Every time I found fish and set up a drift somebody would cut me off. Frustrated. Came back drank beer, ate BBQ. So not all lost. Only got three trout |

Same thing on the sand. They will leave. Good thing about the sand is you can drive far enough to get away from them. Are there places remote enough that you can get away from folks in your boats ?

Yeah, I hate gyms also. Boring as hell. But, it's the strength training that you get at a gym that you can't get anywhere else. And the strength training and muscle tone of our whole body is really important at our age. So - I go through the strength training process wishing I was somewhere else, but knowing I really need it for overall body conditioning.

Hate to pop your bubble, but I said "gonna be", not "am".
