Woke up monday 0400 morning to the sound of rain pelting the window…and hated that the weatherman who said 50-60 percent chance of rain was right…and that no…it wouldnt be “mostly afternoon showers”
Roo was real anxious to go with me…cant you tell:wink:
Determined to think poitive and make the best of it I got ready to go anyway…we have worked in the rain before…and as long as there wasnt lightening I didnt mind.
Hit hardees for breakfast for mom and daddy and the lady there( who knows i go crabbing form past conversations) looked at me and said…“you do realize its raining dont you”…“really? i ask…man…i thought yall had some powerful new sprinklers”
Patches of rain during the whole drive there…but when I got there it had stopped. Opened the door to be pelted by a mob of angry mosquitoes instead. MAN…those things were vicious! Felt like i had stepped into a bed of fire ants…and Im not exagerating a bit!
Hug from mom and a run through our “do you have” list with her and we were off!!! Heres a few pics from our day…hope you enjoy them[:I]
My chariot awaits…
We were in camoflauge today:sunglasses:…crabs wouldnt even see us coming!
Penny you have to do a photo book! Your pictures always tell such great stories. My son would have gone nuts over all those gators. For some reason, he is really in to those things. As for those crabs, I had not been pinched in years but got zapped a couple of weeks ago in Edisto…DANG!, I had forgotten how bad that hurts.
I love your Post’s and Pic’s Penn… I live on Lake Greenwood in the middle of the state, but I would love to be closer to the salwater… I plan on heading down that way soon. I have fish around Hunting Island around beaufort the last couple of years, but I plan on doing some fishing around the Charleston area in the next few months. I fish out of a 1860 Duracraft and it handle the bays and back water pretty good. Keep the pic’s coming!!!
Penny I wish you could hit the water everyday and post pics/stories!! Every post you put makes me want to move to Charleston more and more!! Thanks so much
PENNY…PENNY…PENNY…You did it again…ANOTHER great post!!.…always like it when you share…if you don’t do a book, I’m afraid you’ve missed your calling!!.…We only live once!!..Go for it!!..…Your photo’s are awesome in this post…I really like the one of the crab near the crab basket…cool pic…I’d buy that framed!!..You have a nack for capturing the moment and sharing it with us…I appreciate it…THANK YOU!!
Penny-Thanks again for a most wonderful post and pics!!! The only thing missing was the Lowcountry smell that we’ve come to love everytime we’re down there
Was really expecting to see a pic of your Flipper friend when you said something about seeing something else…haven’t seen any down around Sam’s Point when we’re there in Oct but I’m thinking it’s only matter of time.

Saw him cruising…but he was chasing fishies along the bank on low tide…and daddy made a fast clean getaway before we got sprayed:smiley:
