I'm going to read Sherlock Holmes. And I ( Read more... )

I went crabbing this weekend in grand isle. We didn't catch any crabs, but it was fun all the same. I really enjoyed being outside and fishing off the beach, even though I didn't catch any there. And rock jetties are awesome ( Read more... )
