The Last Minute

This time of year you have to pick the right days...


....to finish the job you started in the fall.

Frozen In

Ah yes, the picture that Jane just drew for me is far from what the bay looks like right now. The picture shows us happily floating over a fish-filled body of water (with a few sharks; the kids like putting sharks in all the pictures), but as the sun sank tonight it looked as though 70% of the inner bay area was covered with ice. The temperature will not rise above freezing for at least four days, so we're in for it now. At least we got this week's oysters in on time.

A nice weekend with Joel and his family here in Duxbury. Fishing was a tall topic and lure-making will ensue shortly. All for now.
