Jeff's Maiden Voyage

My buddy Jeff (above) got a boat this weekend and wanted to take it out sooner than later. So three of us got up early this morning and headed down to the river for a little water recreation.

We took our fishing poles with very little hope to catch anything. If you could see Mike's face in this photo, you'd see a great deal of disappointment. He's becoming the resident fishing junky.

I'm content to prop my legs up and take a nap on the water :)

Actually, the weather was so nice, I did take the opportunity to just relax and take it easy. With all the humidity recently, it seems that stepping outside is a chore. It wasn't that way today. The air was cool and the sun was warm. I just wanted to soak it in and chill.

I think Jeff is praying for a fish in this shot.

You're not out there long before you have to head back to the ramp if you want to get to work on time. I told Mike that it's completely unsatisfying, but better than not going out at all. Before work, you can get in about two hours on the water. Not bad, but a full day is better.

Get out there.
