A small nearby detention pond. I often practice casting to them. Good way to hone skills.

Bird pics from two of my favorite places- Dragon and Holbox

The fault here is not the government. The fault lies with the parents who raised the person(s) responsible for the damage. We are quick to assign blame, but seldom look in the right direction. We want the government to fix things, but we also want it done without taxation. Let’s do a...

If you are going primarily to fish, take your own stuff, including flies. Part of the joy. Guides will have flies and operators will likely have suitable rods and reels with the right lines, if your stuff isn’t quite right. But if you are going mainly for the beach and warm weather, and maybe...

Will the locks fit a 25hp Yamaha? If yes, will you take $60?

I’ve been on Medicare 10 years. First Group Health, then Kaiser. Happy with my choice. I’ve included dental coverage, too. A couple of observations. Plan choices are based on your county of residence. If you live in Whatcom County you have different plan options than if you lived in...
