The Xbox and The Fishing Pole

Last week a friend was sharing a funny story with me about her son who is in middle school. You see, my friend knows how much I love to fish, and her son shares the passion as well. Like me, he can fish all day, every day. He can stand on a dock for hours…

Where Did it Go?

Well, here we are, yes, yes it’s Monday again. If you’re like me you look back and think, where did my weekend go?
