Bass Fishing on Lake Okeechobee

I know.....two posts on the same day but we have been unusually active.  We hung around the motor home this morning until it warmed up around noon and then took our boat out bass fishing.  The sounds that we heard while in the Everglades sounded like we were in a tropical rain forest.  I barely fished because I was entertained by the wildlife.  Billy caught a few bass, a few mud fish, and a few catfish.  We saw some gators but weren't fast enough with the camera to get them to pose for a Kodak moment.  Maggie has a new nickname - "Gator Bait."   She barked at each fish Billy pulled in and had herself a grand old time.  Think that I have talked Billy into a Wal Mart run for sundries, and then I plan to sew again after we have BLT's for dinner.  We stopped by the corner produce stand yesterday and picked up some farm raised tomatoes.  We didn't have to buy any of the beautiful Florida citrus since one of our fellow campers gave us some ruby red grapefruit from his grapefruit farm.  Life is so very good today.
