A Lesson Learned, Maybe

The strong winds around here are making evidence to show folks that the OFM knows what he is talking about. These folks set up the nice patio set with potted plants and statuary. Then the screen room was set up and tied down with some large nails driven into the sand. Then they headed out of town for a long weekend.

The April wind goddess of the Texas coast came along today to show them the reality of wind fun. Maybe they will learn this cheap lesson. There is not any serious damage to the RV but enough they will have reminders engraved in the fiberglas for the rest of their ownership.

On the home front of the OFM Teams, there has been several rigs leaving in the last two days. What that did is leave us a huge front yard for a few days until the summer folks come in. Check out the space we have now.

The fishing this morning was difficult due to the winds and WAVES.  We finally moved down to Fulton and got to fish down wind. After considerable casting and retrieving, this foolish fish hit the lure. It hit way out at the far point of the OFM’s cast, about four miles out it seemed, and fought a good fight all the way to the bulkhead.

We got the fish unhooked and back in the water in time for the fish to swim happily away. That was the only fish that we saw caught today.

In spite of his terrible abilities at fishing, the OFM still loves fishing as a wonderful way of trying to have tooooo much fun.
