    Default Sorry I haven't been posting, got a new job.


    Guys I have been unemployed for close to a year now though I haven't been discussing it for reasons of pride I suppose. I haven't been unemployed for 15 years (my whole adult life) and the last year has been rough to say the least. Last week I was offered what I consider the job of a lifetime, working on a boat. I was hired onto a shrimp boat that works out of the NC coast here where I live. My first trip was this past week and we spent 7 days on the ocean dragging nets. The work is hard for spurts and not what my body is used to for the last 5 years (writing computer programs) but being on the ocean for days in a row is awesome. I will post some pics from the trip later on this post for you guys to see. Hopefully I will be able to post some this week before the boat goes back our for another trip.

    That is very good to hear BE. Hope it works out for you. Yes your absence has been very apparent and the OT board has been very morgue like lately.

    Looking forward to seeing those pictures but even more so to you picking that ladle up and stirring the c.c soup. :D

    Low Country boil is on Big "E".

    Hope you guys have a record year!
    Birddog,

    I pray that I may live to fish until my dying day. And when it comes to my last cast I then most humbly pray. When in the Lord's great landing net and peacefully asleep. That in His mercy I be judged, BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.
