Any of you that can make it to the Fishing Fiesta come by and see me. Maybe you can give me a bathroom break.

First day was slow. Fiesta not officially open until Friday. Sold about $80 worth of tickets. Had to hire a young man to help me set up but I paid him out of my pocket.

Have a nice shady spot close to the band stand. There is a constant breeze so it is not uncomfortable. Plenty of food vendors,Greek food(gyros, Greek salad, and the biggest fresh fried potato chip bowel you have ever seen). I have a big jug of sweet tea with me and lots of prettyu girls to watch.

be careful out there Pat, i was out Monday for just 3 hrs and got a heat stroke and i was partly in the shade and drinking fluids.

scared the hell out of the wife but i knew it wasn't like my normal strokes .

i feel bad that you had to do this gig by yourself i had initially though of trying to make it down there but i knew i could not make it .

I am doing fine Terry. I have a nice shady spot and the wind is pretty steady. I have my ice chest and a gallon of sweet tea. I got my fill of tejano music last night, don't care if I ever hear another tejano song but other than that I am doing pretty good. Lots of pretty girls to look at.

I finished up the Fishing Fiesta a little early. We did pretty good, a little over $500 worth of tickets were sold. The winner was Michael Hobbs of Jones Creek. I also made some good contacts that may pay off in the future.

Now I am going to try to soak up 3 days worth of A/C and catch up on some sleep.
