Fishing Trip

My nephew and his friends went on a fishing trip last fall. They planned to stay for a few days. The lure of the wild and the prospect of fishing for their meals were just so irresistible. Just life me, he loves the outdoors. We both love to hunt and fish whenever we can. One of his buddies arranged everything for their group. Nigel took care of the reels and rods. Another friend took care of the baits. They took no tents, a couple of their pals have aerolite travel trailers. These were great for trips. A buddy of mine also has one. Their group of six was easily accommodated by the trailers. These trailers have all the stuff they'll need. No need to bring along sleeping bags or stoves. They have refs to store their catch.These even have bathrooms.

Nigel brought his boat for the trip. I wanted to tag along with them. It has been awhile since I went  fishing. My hectic schedule did not permit me. I settled with helping my nephew pack his things. He promised to bring me some fish. After the trip, he went straight to our house to hand over a cooler filled with his catch. From the looks of it, the fish were really biting. While we waited for dinner, I helped him wash down his boat. We had a great meal afterwards. Hopefully, my son and I can join them on their next trip.

My Son's Dilemma

Unlike me, my son has wide feet. Buying shoes for him is quite taxing. He can only wear wide shoes. Athletic shoes are no problem, it's the formal shoes that is difficult to find. More often than not, we had to have dress shoes mad for him. Thanks to stores that know that not all feet are alike and carries shoes that address everyone's needs.

Women In My Life

I accompanied my wife and daughter to an afternoon of self indulgence. They went to a spa and beauty center. After their massage, they proceeded to the center's salon. They had their hair done. They also had a manicure and pedicure. My daughter bought an eyelash enhancer. They went shopping for their Christmas clothes. It was late when they finished. I waited for them at a cafe. Had I gone with the, I would have ended up with sore feet. 

Comeback Kid

Towards the end of the year, Tiger Woods posted his first win since his divorce. The low point in his life and his injury in a car crash led to his slump. His sponsors left him. Hopefully, this will be the beginning of his comeback. He had been performing well. Sponsors are coming in and we all saw the effect of his absence. I hope he continues to improve and win more tournaments.

Armed For Trekking

My son and I loves to trek even during the cold months. His old trekking shoes are long gone. I bought him a new pair of Treksta evolution Mid. We're preparing for another trip and could encounter some snow. We've bought the right clothes and provisions. I also bought a new tent that is suited for winter. We're fully armed for trekking.

Video Addict

My son just loves watching videos on youtube. Most are videos of skateboard tricks and stunts. He's an avid skateboarder. He spends countless hours viewing these videos then practicing them. The problem was that you have to be online to view them. He found a way to solve this. He discovered a youtube downloader best suited for his needs. He now keeps a library of videos in his laptop and ipod.
