Moth
After getting sandfleas yesterday my body did not want to move when I got up this morning. So I have spent most of the day on a heating pad, my back can not stand doing that, but we needed them to be able to fish. Since not doing anything today I really don't have much to say, but can tell you a story that my husband told me about. He said Friday while he was anchored he saw a white moth with black circles floating by his boat, he picked it up and set it on the trolling motor mount on his bow. He sat back down and looked and it was upside down on his bowline that he wraps around the mount, he thought damn I saved him just to watch him die. He went back to the bow and looked at the moth and its legs were moving so he turned it upright. A while later he looked at it and saw it was trying to get under the bowline, he decided it must be to hot for it so he lifted the bowline and the moth went under it. He said the moth stayed there all day. When he pulled his boat out of the water he lifted the rope and the moth flew off. He is a good man, #mothsaver #mothhero
This is a pelican that was on a piling at the fish house, he has a real birds eye view.

@wakeupkitty I will think about it, I am not really a writer, I just like to post about my day or past things that I remember. I will read about it and see if it is something I might want to do. Thank you for liking my posts and your kind words.
You can post the same way as you do now. Write the same way just use a certain tag.

dailypetphotography if you have a picture of some kind of animal (doesn't need to be your pet),
life or busy if you write about your day.
I was wondering... perhaps you can teach people how to fish, tourists or young people without a boat? They could use yours and give you a share if you are no longer able to work.

@wakeupkitty thank you once again. Teaching people to fish is a thought, but not letting them use my boat, I have seen to many people using boats that have no clue as to what they are doing and I am afraid they would blow my motor up by running it a ground, or something like that.
If you teach them well, they work with you they can do the work one day if you are no longer to do so.

@wakeupkitty that sounds like a good plan, but hopefully I can still fish for another 10 or 15 years
Thank you for recommending the freewrite!!
