Happy Super Bowl Sunday
Here's to my favorite national holiday. I hope you have some decent squares. Here's to my brother recovering from Quad bypass surgery back in Maine. After 2 days in the ITC he's sitting up and asking for
Today more than New Years Day is a time to reflect on the past year. Walleye fishing was so so on the US side but Canadian waters held more fish this year permitting some to catch their personal bests. My cousin Joe did it in May- see Joe's big walleye. I also had a personal best fishing for walleye but a different species:
Muskies are really coming back in the river along with many other species; it's got to be a good thing. Turkey hunting was tough this year but as always because of the time of year it was very rewarding. Salmon fishing was the same this year, just outstanding. Captain Dan put us on fish and what a great time catching we had. His web site is http://stormychinook.com/ but he may be booked up for this year. Then deer hunting and pheasant hunting, 0 deer and 1 pheasant. Not highly productive but great times all around.
Getting ready for the game, many of the memories are coming back. Like some food you enjoy them better the second time around. The venison bacon and turkey sausage are cooked and ready to go. Thanks Ray's Prime Foods for putting them together. Although they aren't dietary they are reduced fat and great tasting.
Open up a Moose Drool and get ready for kickoff. Let's hope for a high scoring game, at least that's what my squares are predicting. Happy Birthday to Jason may the squares be with you.
