August 31 it is.


(There may be a little wiggle room there, cuz early September can still be really good, but that depends on conditions, like water flows and weather and whether y’all are cool in the first place)

Of course, sir, but if the fishing guide affords that much, then there’s no point in also requesting the late checkout at the Airbnb.

Unless, of course, the entire point of all this is to have y’all’s cake and eat it too.

Sorry, but there is no manager.

There is no cake, either.

That will help me forget the previous record, an ~ 18' female full of eggs they found near Naples, a city I visit from time to time.

unfortunately, the thought is that this one had already laid her >100 eggs and was in search of her first postpartum meal

Just found a bald faced hornet on our screened in deck.

Yikes. There's a nest somewhere near my house.

oh yeah!

Did I tell you about the coworker friend's husband who kept trying to lecture me on a camping trip?

He kept condescendingly insisting he knew way more about the great outdoors thread than me, cuz, so what if I've spend my whole life fishing and camping and hiking and experiencing the outdoors firsthand....he knows way more than me, pretty much an expert now, cuz watched these YouTube vids about bushcraft.
