Mark, this is why we need you up here at Pax. I'm sure I could get you a part-time gig with one of the local watermen if you find you miss that sort of thing.
I'll pass on your most generous offer. I've done a day on a Chesapeake Bay boat netting oysters. Of course, I was in high school and in slightly better shape (or less shapely). Not sure I've got the stomach for it (although I have a little more stomach than I did back then - from a six pack to a 40 ounce in a mere 20 years).
Down here, we just use unpaid child labor to do that kind of work, anyway.
You take care, Tim. Keep postin' and I'll keep readin' (and occasionally respondin').
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ...Robbie looks cold! Hope you both had hot chocolate after this (yours w/ a little something extra).

We did--and mine did.
ReplyDeleteUsing your kid for a "scale"? That's child abuse in blue states.
ReplyDeleteNo snow down here where we use kids for flounder gigs.
