So you want a good laugh or too? Here is a fellow with my kind of humor and it is about fishing no less!

The whole Castle was shaking with my laughter before long. Enjoy.

The adventure for today took a big setback about four am this morning when a severe unrelenting cramp hit my right calf. When it was finally time to get up my leg was so sore it was hard to walk. A lot of time was spent playing on the computer where the site shown above helped lift my spirits.

Late this afternoon a walk down at the Memorial Park here in Rockport was taken. Make that a slow walk. Make that a very slow walk. However it was a very nice day out with sunshine and about 68 degrees. There is a bench there that has been in several of my pictures and today it was in another one of a peaceful scene.

Along the route was a supervising bird to keep everyone in line and behaving. It certainly kept a close eye on me when my path meandered past it.


Several of the grasses or weeds have their fall show going on. Some attempts were made to catch them in a photogenic pose. You get to chose how successful the attempts were.


The yaupon was doing great with their berry production. In the sunlight they were nearly glowing. These are some of the prettiest berries in the world. Too bad they do not taste very good like strawberries.

The good news is that at this later hour my leg is doing very well which give me hopes of some good adventure to experience tomorrow in the effort of trying to have tooooo much fun. TheOFM.

  1. Some of those cartoons were pretty funny, and i'm not even a fisherman.

    I'm up all night with leg cramps. I tried drinking lots of water and it helped for a couple of days. Same with stretching the muscles before going to bed, but after a few days of relief the cramps are back. Do you have any idea what causes yours?

  2. Mine are normally associated with not getting any leg exercise like walking a couple of miles or riding the Sightseer. Not getting physically active causes me lots of troubles.

  3. You say yaupon berries don't taste very good. I didn't know that they were edible, unless you need a good cleaning out (grin). Around my place, I don't see even birds eating them.

  4. They are edible and only slightly poisonous. The taste was not my idea of pleasant.
