July 4th Holiday Weekend Bass Fishing Recap
2008-07-19 13:28:00 No better way to spend a long holiday weekend then doing a little bass fishing!!! Friday July 4th, I had a guide trip out on Lake Minnetonka. We launched out of Gray's Bay and kind of stuck to the east end of the lake. We started throwing some topwater and spinnerbaits over some weedlines that I had caught fish on in the past. I caught a pike and a nice little bass pretty quick on a Vixen. We then started working the deeper edge, quickly Daryl boated a bass on a black 10" Power Worm. I then caught several fish on soft plastics ranging from ring frys, robo worms and Big show paddle tails. Daryl caught his fair share on a wacky rigged Yamamoto Senko. We probably caught close to 10 bass on the first area. The next area we each caught one keeper on soft plastics. The 3rd area produced 3 small bass on spinnerbaits and another on a drop shot. We tried a couple more deep areas, but the boat traffic started to be too much to...
I seem to write about this every holiday, so here goes.
2008-07-03 19:52:00 It's the Fourth of July tomorrow, and that means everyone's thoughts turn to... getting that new Blackhawk tactical vest .Okay, that means "everyone's [who is a police officer or law enforcement personnel] thoughts turn to... getting that new Blackhawk tactical vest ."But me, too: I am thinking about it, because the Babies! are getting stronger, all the time, and those raccoons are still out there. So police officers and I are both thinking about Blackhawk tactical vests. And thinking about Blackhawk tactical vests means, naturally, that you're thinking about LA Police Gear. LA Police Gear sells equipment to police, military personnel, security professionals, and even me and you, the 'general public.' It was founded by LA police officers, so they know what equipment is the best.So celebrate Independence Day by treating yourself to some new gear from LA Police Gear -- or get some for the friendly neighborhood cop!
The Best Day To Have Off For A Holiday
2008-07-02 15:12:00 This year, the Fourth of July falls on a Friday, meaning that the "Fourth of July" will actually be celebrated on the "Fourth of July." Unless you live in Madison, Wisconsin, as I do, in which case the Fourth of July is never to be celebrated on the Fourth of July because that brings one dangerously close to celebrating America, a/k/a The United States, and if there is one thing Madisonians know, it's that celebrating the United States is wrong.That's why, this year, Madison held its big Fourth of July fireworks celebration ("Rhythm & Booms") on Saturday, June 28, which is not only not the Fourth of July, it's not even in July.Not celebrating the Fourth of July on the Fourth of July is not the worst way Madison has shown that it doesn't really get the whole concept of "Independence Day," though. The worst way they showed that was by, a few years back, including in their Fourth of July fireworks show a tribute to Princess Diana.That's right: Madison's city leaders felt the ...
Haven Caister Holiday Park
2008-06-25 22:15:00 Went to Norfolk a couple of weeks ago using the points from Walker's Brit Trips... however they forgot to deduct the points so I still have a shedload to use. I have been fascinated with panoramic photos for a while, but have never shot one. The plan is to shoot 'regular' ones like this but also to try some 360 degree interactive panoramas, when I get hold of a panoramic tripod head. However, this was shot handheld from the top of a sand dune and stitched using Autopano. It is comprised of 10 shots, all portrait. There is a little distortion going on, but, overall, not a bad test.The trouble with posting shots mainly at 900px wide inevitably means this panoramic looks a bit small, so, to see it larger, click HERE.

McCain Still Pushing For Gas Tax Holiday
2008-06-10 06:40:00 You'd think that considering how well that worked for Obama's last opponent he'd have dropped the subject by now.From CNN:McCain resurrects call for gas tax holidayWASHINGTON (CNN) ? With gas prices reaching a national average of four dollars a gallon ? a record high ? John McCain is planning to resurrect his call for a national gas tax holiday, which became a staple of his stump speech in late April and early May. A McCain aide told CNN's Dana Bash on Monday that the Arizona senator planned to plug the gas tax holiday in public statements throughout the day as a message to voters that he understands the plight of working families in a tough economy. Before a fundraiser in Richmond, Virginia on Monday, McCain mentioned the gas tax holiday in remarks to a smaller event for about 40 high-dollar donors. "That was derided by Sen. Obama and others as a gimmick," McCain said, but added that working people and truckers would appreciate it. "I don't pretend that it's an answer to our ...

A heritage holiday in Bratislava
2008-06-06 00:00:00 Swot up on Slovakian history with a tour of Bratislava's most renowned Jewish heritage sights.The city was once one of the most prominent centres of traditional Jewish learning in Europe, with rabbi and scholar Chatam Sofer leading the field in the late 18th/early 19th centuries.His tomb, part of a former Jewish cemetery dating back from 1670 to 1847, has since become a monument to Jewish learning and a popular place of pilgrimage at the foothills of the Small Carpathian Mountains between the Danube and Bratislava Castle.Meanwhile, the city's Museum of Jewish Culture charts a more tragic period of Jewish history with moving exhibits about the community that was decimated during World War II.A cross commemorates them under the Staromestska highway to the pedestrian old town and there is also a small Holocaust Memorial near where the old synagogue once stood.Bratislava's Municipal Museum provides a more general overview of the capital's history.

Strong euro influences holiday choices
2008-05-29 02:00:00 The value of the pound against the euro is directly affecting people's travel habits, it has been revealed. According to Directholidaybookings.co.uk, the strength of the single currency has put people off travelling to traditional European destinations. This has led to many people seeking alternative options beyond the continent, such as Egypt and Morocco. The two African nations were said to offer far more favourable exchange rates with the UK, which means holidaymakers could find they offer better value for money. Andrew Gibson, director of DirectHolidaybookings.co.uk, commented: "British tourists are finding that their money will go much further if they consider alternative locations." He added that the cost of visiting established hotspots such as Spain and France has risen "significantly" in the last few months. This comes after the Association of British Travel Agents revealed that emerging economies and mid to long-haul destinations are becoming mor...

My husband and I went out to dinner at Red Lobster and then went to see the new Indiana Jones movie which was fantastic. Saturday we picked up the kids around noon and headed to Saginaw to spend most of the weekend at my father-in-law's house. We had a fabulous time. The kids were covered in sunblock, but my husband and I are a bit red. It's better than being whiter than white though. I wish I hadn't been sick yesterday, but at least it's over. I feel better today. Still a little weak, but better.

Memorial Day 2008
2008-05-26 18:42:00 The blog-o-sphere is full of citizens honoring the ultimate sacrifice that so many our country's soldiers have made. It is extremely difficult to put the deep sense of gratitude I feel into words (and, truthfully, it seems a bit nonsensical to try). But, I would just like to express my disappointment with the politicization and partisanship that I have seen across the internet so far this morning. Nontheless, I do not fault the bloggers themselves. We are all subject to the power of our current political landscape. If only we could rise above it--rise above the polarizing frey. Rise to the level of what it means to be an America--rise to a level that our soldiers would be proud of; proud to fight for; proud to sacrifice for.My wishes and prays are with all the honorable soldiers we recognize today; as well as with their families and friends.
