Thursdays Thoughts

A day in town for Mr. Outdoors and I ...a very windy day!  Bringing in a storm from the west, always Thankful for the rain.  The price of gas is getting very scary...where oh where will it end?  They do it to us every year when the weather gets warm and we all start thinking about vacations.  We always spend our vacations in Colorado and I see where the brookies (trout) are running and it gets my fishing fever up.  HA!  We bought our tomato and pepper plants a couple days ago and Mr. Outdoors says the garden is ready to be worked and planted.  We will be planting 50 tomato plants and 10 various pepper plants.  And of course zucchini and cantaloupe, maybe some sweet corn....sounds yummy!  I hope the tomatoes do better than last year...we had 6 foot tall plants and no tomatoes to speak of, it was that way for everyone, just too danged hot.  But here again everyone and his dog are saying this will be the hottest summer ever because we had such a mild winter..so we will see.  I hope they are wrong!  I know one thing we have seen more snakes this spring than we ever have,  Mr. Outdoors was putting a new tank on our well the other day and saw a huge one...and when he says it was huge you can believe it was!  When he was mowing the yard he saw three of the dang things...yuck...I don't like snakes!  Here's  a trout picture from last year......can you tell i'm ready to fish?!  LOL
