Fishing in the grass
When I was little, back in the day before TSA and airport security, my parents would pop me on a plane by myself to see my Maw-maw and Paw-paw, in Norcross, GA. ย I loved my grandparents very much, but there wasn't much to do. ย Aside from getting the mail out of the mailbox, bible summer school, and running back and forth across the lawn.ย Oh yeah, one year I did get to play with yarn.ย Needless to say, casting a fishing line into a bucket created a thrilling diversion. ย ย I spent a lot of time trying to hit that bucket as a kid. ย Now that we live on a lake, I've retired the bucket. ย I still don't catch much, but I'm hooked.ย Our friends Wes and Wanda have a place up in Canada where they enjoy the summer season and lots of fishing.A Brown Butter Almond Trout Recipe Lesson
