On vacation!

[Sparky-(Admin) 23,728]

On vacation this week in Maine. Did a bit of fishing this morning and hooked this (purple rubber worm). About 15-16" long. 
I'm gonna hate going back to work!

NICE, looks beautiful there! Water is CLEAR
Just spent 4 weeks up there but working in Bethel around the White Mountains area.
What's the deal with that place? Rent the house with a boat or...
I see you didn't ruin your soft Palmolive hands

It's a rented house but I brought my own boat. I tried to get the fish outa the live well but it was way to slippery and feisty.....had to use my gloves with the grippy palms  !

Very relaxing! No agenda to follow.....just hanging out, sleeping late and a few beers at night! Both my kids are here with their boyfriend/girlfriend and they have their own wheels so I'm not driving anyone anywhere.

What lake?

[squonk 44,515]

I was going to ask, What part of Maine? My dad was from Madawaska and we would go up there every year. My Uncle had a camp on Long Lake.

Sparky, you need some Playtex Living Gloves. You can fish,do dishes and pick up a dime with them. I think they are insulated so you can use them for work!

This town has a population of under 1000 people and there is not one single restaurant in town...not even a gas/convenience store. But the next town over has pretty much everything you could need. We only ate out once. Cooked all the rest of our meals here....did a half dozen lobster last nite YUM! I'm useless in the cookin department, so my wife, my daughter and her boyfriend have done most of it......I do most all the dishes.

Oh yes we did! Lost power last night for about 4 hours as a massive rain and wind storm came thru last nite. Luckily the boat has an automatic bilge pump or else I would be calling a salvage company to retrieve it off the bottom!
