Comments:

I was fishing by myself tonight. I needed to have a little solitude time; I came to the conclusion that my old rabbit hunting dog Abby was in need of a little assistance in leaving this world. I scheduled a final vet appointment for us on Friday. They say you will know when it is time and I see that now.
Fishing was not very good tonight. I did catch a fish here and there, but it was tough. I do not think the calm, flat water helped matters any. There were lots of bass boats out pre-fishing for the upcoming BFL Tournament on Saturday.

Observations:

The water is still dropping rather quickly, and now it seems to be somewhat dingy. My lilacs have not bloomed yet, but area plum trees are in full bloom and I have noticed some apple trees blooming.
