The Big Guy preferred to spend a few days along the Northern California coast during his birthday week; and if that wasn’t possible, he would definitely be fishing somewhere!

Spring was one of his favorite times to go after bass at Clear Lake and the Sacramento Delta. Surprisingly, it was only a […]

As I was leaving our rooms at 8:30 to make a run to the nearby supermarket, there he was standing on one foot atop what I could only assume was […]
Just a few of the sights from our recent travels to and from Texas this year.
