Getting Older, getting wiser ????

On the radio, yesterday was Tina Louise's birthday - she is 79. This Tina is ' Ginger ' from Gilligan's Island. OMG, she was pin up girl for TV.
BTW, MaryAnn is 74 and the Professor is 83.

Good fishing to-day, caught a ' red ' , this is a red drum. Simple jig and minnow near the dock and Whamo, the line straightens and the fight was on. Not big but a brawler for sure. The best part or parts 
a) dragged the red away from the dock, fought him out and took him back to the dock to land him.  b) a witness and picture - Bonus !

Very pleased right now. Last year, the red hit the night before we leave. Now I get two more days to catch another. Neat.

Weather is breaking cloudy but humid. oh well, we'll sweat it out.

In the quality of life poll, Germany finished first and Canada was 4 th.
The Scandinavian countries and Ireland filled out the top ten.
Germany received high marks for social issues e.g. care of the elderly.  Canada got panned for other social factors including poverty among the young etc.

Here we go again  hear the chanting " We're # 4, we're #4 " Oh well, four beats five.
