Title: Good trip +
Post by: Keta on June 23, 2014, 12:49:44 AM
I made it home just before 16:00 after a thankfully uneventful drive but I came home to live skunks, a dead ewe, new chicks and a garden full of weeds.

When I headed south I was bit concerned about fishing a smaller boat with as many people as we had, I've always been on bigger boats with 23 people.  WELL.... there were few tangles, always room on the rail and we all had a good time.  A big thanks to Dominic (his wife) and Alan for letting me break up the long drive.

I hope all had as much fun on the trip as I did!!!

A dead ewe?...  Any idea of what she died of?

Sounds like polioecephalomalacia.

I'm glad you're home safe & sound. You knew the weeds would grow but the rest I feel bad for his. At least your freezer is full of fish.

Uneventful trips while driving is a great thing.  Glad you made it back home safe and sound.  So sad that I was not able to meet up with anyone, but I know there will be a day when we can hook up again.

glad you got home safely.  it's ALOT of driving.  we will plan on april at your place (sounds like several want to go) and then back down in june again.  i am thinking of an inshore trip, back and forth to cedros, with an option of offshore for tuna if they are on the munch.

Lee, I loved watching you hammering the YT in the video. I'm sorry I wasn't there. Glad you had a great trip and I hope someday to be on the rail with you.
