The light splash of water was the only sound breaking the silence as we loaded our gear before sunrise at the dock.  The boat sputtering toward the channel as we made our way to the big lake.  As we set up our equipment, the sun was a glowing orange as began to appear.  I ate my doughnut watching it rise and waiting to snag a rainbow trout.  The boat rocking in the gentle breeze.

This piece would look best in a space that is red, dark orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white, beige, or wood

A cool breeze comes off Seneca Lake as we walk the grounds of a winery.  Feels good after a long drive and many stops at roadside stands, Amish farms, and a delicious lunch in Geneva, NY.  Just relaxing with a glass of wine and looking at the panoramic view of the lake.  There's a sweet scent through the vineyard as we saunter aimlessly.  A good place to think about what would pair best with our meal later in Watkins Glen.

This painting would look best in a space that is red, orange, dark yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white, beige, or wood

 Who's Ya Callin' a Clown, Fish?

"W... Hat... What? Oh, What! Are You Serious Right Now?

Meet Dave Jr.  Not Really...  Again...  This is Rocky!  The newest addition to the family from Lollypop Farm and Stella's newest roommate.  



Here's Rachel and Rocky.  Why Rachel is traveling at the speed of light is unknown...



Fishing for salmon at Linear Park in Penfield.  Looks like a beer commercial...



The world's littlest hamster.  He's only 7 days old...



RABBITS ON THE LOOSE!  



How can anyone have a bad day at work when the last thing they see is a dozen rabbits bouncing around?  They don't...


Time for some pizza and Biggest Loser.  Two things that go together beautifully... 

"That Was Awful." "What Are You Looking At Me For? You Said It." "I know. It's Still Awful."

The festivities continue. In fact, I might have to help others in finding festivies. A lot of people have been sending me e-mails acknowledging their lameness and wanting help. So, I think I am going to start a "What To Do In Muskegon" website. It will have parties, bars, concerts, shows, and other events. So, start sending all public welcome events to me and I will see what I can do...

This is GH pier right before it rained.

Hasan and I planned a huge party last night. Look at all the people. People refused the invitation by phone, so we ended up going out because people cannot refuse by force. The Beast From the Middle East knows that all too well...

Ahhh... Friends Forever...

Here are our recruits for Hasan's party just as everyone was to head home. Notice the guilty looks and body postures on everyone. By the time 5:30 am rolled around, I think everyone had something to regret...

Not sure what I am doing today. Andrea's birthday is at midnight and she becomes legal. I don't want to be out too late since I have to work tomorrow morning and have to catch up on some sleep. Especially since Monday is going to be my Day of Wreckoning...
