MAZEPPA PARADE 2009

I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW HOW THEY GOT FIRE TRUCKS IN THE PARADE. AS A KID WE HAD PONY CARTS AND THE SCOUTS. MY HOW WE HAVE PROGRESSED.
AND WHAT A GREAT MESSAGE BY PASTOR PHILLIPS AND NICE MEETING HIM.
SAW BETH JOHNSON....SORRY HACKENBURG...........AND HER GERMAN SHEPARD.
NOT CINDERS THOUGH AND THINKING SHE SAID HIS NAME WAS GUNTHER.
WHAT A WONDERFUL TIME IN THE OLD HOMETOWN AND BINK AND I WALKED THROUGH THE CEMETARY AFTERWARDS.

FIRST WADE AND FISHING TRIP

HAD MY FIRST WADE AND FISHING TRIP IN BUFFALO CREEK YESTERDAY AND WHAT A GREAT DAY. EVEN GOT TO SEE A SNAPPING TURTLE ON NATIONAL TURTLE DAY.
ONLY ONE KINGFISHER AND BLUE HERON. CAUGHT 6 IN ALL AND A GIANT ROCK BASS WAS ONE OF THEM. THOUGHT AT FIRST IT WAS A SMALL MOUTH BUT ONCE I GOT IT OUT OF THE WATER THE RED EYE SAID ROCK BASS. DIDN'T MEASURE IT BUT EVERY BIT 13 - 14 INCHES. JUST A WONDERFUL DAY AND TONIGHT THE PARADE AND ICE CREAM SOCIAL.

LAST WADE OF 2008

TOOK MY LAST WADE OF BUFFALO CREEK TODAY AS IT WAS MID 70's AND FOR OCTOBER I WILL TAKE IT. IT WAS A BIT CHILLY AND ONLY CAUGHT 3 FISH. BUT ONE WAS A NICE SHINER ABOUT 12 INCHES AND CHECK OUT THE PICTURE FOLDER OF THE PHOTOS I TOOK TODAY.

TODAY...31

WENT FISHING AGAIN TODAY AS I WADED BUFFALO CREEK. A LOT OF SHINERS TODAY BUT THEY ALL COUNT AS FISH AND I GOT 31 IN ALL. LOTS OF DUCKS AND KINGFISHERS AND EVEN SAW A FAWN.

FISHING

AND JUST HAD ........to quote spongebob......THE BEST DAY EVER........WADED BUFFALO CREEK IN THE OLD HOMETOWN AND CAUGHT 17 FISH. MOSTLY LARGEMOUTH BUT DID GET 2 ROCK BASS AND A SHINER. SUNNY SUMMER DAY AND NOTHING LIKE WADING THE CREEK WITH NOTHING AROUND BUT THE WILDLIFE.
