8/12/2012 Best Laid Plans and Lots of Fish

Plans are made to go out with Steve and Kerri tonight. Dinner and who knows what afterwards.


Bob spent the afternoon fishing at the rail. He got into a school of blues and brought a few in. He threw them back except for two which he gave to our neighbor to cut up for bait for his crab traps.


I spent the afternoon packing for the next few days. We’re going to Wilmington to see my parents, get work done on the truck and get some shopping done to stock up on some things we can’t get elsewhere. Case in point…. we like hot cherry peppers on our sandwiches. We can’t find quart jars of hot cherry peppers out west. We can find the peppers but they aren’t hot. So we’ll stock up.


Steve stopped in the late afternoon to let us know that they couldn’t make it tonight after all. His brother and sister-in-law have come to the beach unexpectedly. It happens. Bob and I were disappointed because we don’t know when we’ll see this couple again. There has been talk that sometime in the next two years we’ll meet up somewhere. We hope so because we have come to really care about these two.


We watched bits and pieces of the Olympic’s closing ceremony during the evening.
