People want live by the water, guys.
People live in high density accommodations when they must.
I wish it were different, but we know better.

Thanks Lori....we get some flashy dark Coppernose Gills in Carolina......we had a great day yesterday! You have to get somewhere and catch a few of these....very addictive......

Very pretty fish Jeffrey.....

I wish but so many developers target waterfront property these days........

Comment by Leo Nguyen on May 30, 2013 at 1:59pm

NO!! Why would a splendid honey hole be fallen into unnecessary expansion? Turn existing city developed land into high density, or at least away from the water bodies..far far away (15 minutes minimum).

Funny you say that....I have a honey hole in Virginia where I catch a bushel of big blue crabs.....and catch a mess of gills in between checking my crab lines.....such a great place but it's about to fall to development......

Well, why can't you do the gilling, and she does the crabbing? let's called it "crabilling", or "gillicrabber"

Comment by Jeffrey D. Abney on May 30, 2013 at 1:44pm

No worries.....I would take her every time Leo but she gets a fix and then she's good for awhile....now say you're going crabbing and she'll be there all day! We'll be on the Big Blue Crabs soon....

Great to see the the family is out and about. Nothing like the first lady hitting the water's fun, while the hubby doing all the manual labors.

Thanks guys....Helen normally doesn't get too excited about fishing since it's as common as sunrise in my house, but we had some fun yesterday over a few of America's greatest fish......she'll be pushing me to catch a few bushels of big blue crabs in the weeks ahead and that will be fun too.....
