:DFalls not far,and between little league and football starting tommorrow for my boys,the time passes pretty quick for me!I spent the night on Shasta Lake last night catfishing and as that slow glow of sun-up approached I still find myself with one ear listening for that faint early morning gobble even though I know its not going to happen!!;)
