Good training day. Feel good with the amount of dog work I got in today, now I'm ready to eat, relax while watching the race and ............................................... Gonna try to get some more dog work in tomorrow (early) a.m., then a nap.

The sun is shining here

Shut-up.

It;s raining like a cow pizzing on a flat rock right now.

You'll be happy to know, there is beer in the Keels' house again.

Blue Moon, thanks. However the supply is dwindling now.

I AM TIRED OF BEING INSIDE! At least most of the local ponds are full pool now. Maybe tomorrow after church I can catch a bass.

They'll be in the woods I may fish in the road going down to the river in the morning

Wevans, You may not have to go far to the river. I just heardon the scanner that they've got FHP, FWC, DEP and the SO's officers headed to Sopchoppy for evac. They closed St. Marks to all but residents and turning everyone else back at the Express Lane. Hope you got your snake boots and your high water panties on!

Naysayers need only cross the St. Marks at Newport and the Aucilla and they'll be instant believers!
