IT'S TUESDAY AND BOSTON IS ALL OVER THE NEWS

Can't help but think of Angie Hop, she lives for this healthy running stuff and someday she could be one of the runners.  It breaks your heart.
I think we are going to the Ocean today, at least I am, Jim may pass, it is going to be hot and may rain so it would be a good day to walk the beach.
The dogs were going nuts this morning because the armadillo was visiting.  There is a hole between two palm trees he loves to dig at for grubs.  They are so much bigger than I thought they would be.
Jim went fishing with Frank at the Pier yesterday. 

I want you to see a grass carp.  This fish swims around our lake right up against the edge of the lake with its dorsal fin sticking up out of the water at times.  They are huge.

This is a Spanish Mackeral, Jim caught it at The Pier.

 

 Another  view of the Spanish Mackeral.

 

Now this is a Lady Fish.  Isn't she dainty.

 

Jim had some fun fish stories.  He has been to the Pier fishing twice.  The first time he caught two Dolphins.  What happened was he caught a fish but then a dolphin grabbed the fish he caught and took off with it.  The guy next to him told him to just open the bale and let the dolphin run with it.  What the dolphins do is hold the fish they are eating, in their mouth and leave the head, when the dolphon let go, Jim ended up with the head of the fish he caught.  What is really funny is this didn't just happen once, it happened twice.  It took at least 15 minutes for the dolphin to give him back his line with the head of the fish.  Frank told Jim that he has never seen this happen in the 15 years he has been fishing the pier.
