• Misty, calm, warmer, temp: 53, high: 81.
• And by the time you read this Jim, Randy, Denise, & Candy will be well on their way to Port Madison for some deep sea fishing in the ocean (gulf).
• "the best laid plans . . ." where have you heard that before? Yes, it happened. The fishing trip was canceled.
• Our troop of Candy, Jim, Randy & Denise got to Port Madison in plenty of time for fishing, but the fishing boat decided it needed the day off, so it refused to start and about 10, the captain called off the outing.
• So they called us suggesting that we reconnoiter on South Padre Island for the afternoon. Didn't get home til after 6. But had a nice day of sand beaches and sun.
• In the early evening, Dan called to tell me I missed a "big" show storm that day in Minnesota - it snowed all of 4" which the news reported as a big storm. He also briefed me on his family news. Thanks, Dan, for the call.
• And our fisher-people get to go fishing on Wednesday. We wish them luck.
