Hey Folks it’s me again, are you still out there?  I hope so.  Anyhow, Today I continue Poetry Tuesday with another one that I wrote for my wife when we were dating.  I can’t wait until someone says “Why don’t you write something new for (insert name or explicitive here)’s sake?”

I like to share some older stuff.  So there.  Maybe next week.

Anyway, Today I have titled this poem Forever.  Enjoy and let me know if you like some of these!

The fishing is imminent….

   Posted by: Justin Matthews   in Family, fishing, Observations

I feel like singing that old Tom Lehrer song, “Spring is here, Spring is here…” Oh here, just watch it.

While there may not be many pigeons meeting their demise at my hands, I can’t say the same for the fish.  The ice is melting, the sun is shining, the fish are hungry and so am I.  I just recently cleaned out my garage and nicely stacked my fishing gear near the door.  I am almost ready to put them permanently in the car for the summer.

head on back Here and read Part 1 of this story from yesterday if you haven’t already.

This weekend I taught my daughter 9 and my son who will be 7 in a week how to shoot.  They kind of knew about guns but had never handled one.  They mainly knew what they had seen on TV or in movies.  That of course is not necessarily  safe or correct.  **disclaimer here- Safety is my #1 priority when it comes to guns.  I once got knocked on my butt by my grandpa for turning around with my rifle (cradled and unloaded mind you, we just got out of the truck) and the muzzle passing within a foot of him.  Never forgot that.  Never lost track of a muzzle again either.**
