Visited my dad Bill's marker that was just installed this week at Bourne National Cemetery Friday then caught a 26" bass (missed several others) that afternoon on his yellow pencil with his signature red throat. Will be throwing a lot of his wood this year ( as usual). He and I always talked about me " visiting" him when I fished to cape, an easy promise to keep. Looking for 1st 2013 keeper on his wood, but I am sure it will come soon.

Very cool!

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

I'll bet that felt good. A little time for yourself likely comes hard these days.
