Tomorrow I will be embarking on a journey home. Right now all I want to do is take advantage of the gorgeous weather Oklahoma is having. Today was absolutely amazing, I worked outside all day long. I wanted to have my feet in the water, with an ice cold bottle of water and lure in the water. That’s exactly what I wanted today. Instead, I opted for 5 miles, mowing, grocery shopping and an incident that involved mowing over pampass grass. Yeah, I’m admitting it – I’m guilty. Since the weather is going to continue I’m going to take advantage of it and get back into my golfing and fishing addiction. I love my summer addictions. It’s not just yard work anymore ya’ll.
These will be all mine tomorrow. I’ll be heading straight to the range to try them out. I haven’t picked them up in years, so swinging clubs is going to be interesting. I’m betting I’ll be rusty, but I’m also hoping I can shake it off and get back into my grove towards the end of my bucket of balls. I doubt I’ll be ready to play a course for awhile, but at least I’ll be ready when the opportunity presents itself. Plus, Pops said he’d get me a new set of irons if I felt good swinging my old JR high clubs. Cross your fingers! I’ve got my eye on a set of Taylor Made’s.
Another favorite summer tool of mine. An open faced reel. Oh yes, I’m good enough to throw this and have it not backlash. I know I surprised Pops at not only how far I can throw it, but also that it doesn’t backlash in my hands. I love love love to fish. It has been an addiction since I was a kid. It’ll be in my hands tomorrow morning when I head home to get it. Just hope Pops doesn’t have it hid out somewhere and that I’ll be able to find it. He’s always stealing my rod & reel because my equipment is amazing.
I need one of these days every day. Looking forward to spending as much time as possible out in it while it sticks around. Besides I need to finish off the funky tan lines that I wound up with today. I’m looking forward to summer, just not looking forward to summer school.
