Sport Fishing
If you like sport fishing, you surely will like to fish for redfish. Redfish is a common name for a range of species of fish throughout the English-speaking world. It is commonly applied to members of the deep-sea genus Sebastes, or the reef dwelling snappers, Lutjanus. It is also applied to the slimeheads or roughies (family Trachichthyidae), and the alfonsinos (Berycidae). This feisty species is one of the best fighters in the inshore spectrum and, if cooked correctly, a great addition to the barbeque menu. Even some restaurants have adopted the fish as a specialty. For example, at the famous Redfish Seafood Grill and Bar on Bourbon Street, New Orleans, they headline, “At Redfish, we serve up a parade of award-winning French Quarter specialties, including classics like Blackened Redfish, Crawfish Etouffee and Jambalaya.”

Tree-sicles!
I woke up this morning with the terrified realization that I had left pop cans in the garage. So is the woe of the wintery Minnesotan. For those of you who have lived in warmer climates all your lives, you might not realize this, but when cans freeze in your garage in the winter, they often times will explode, leaving a caffeinated, carbonated mess. My mind then took a sharp left, and started thinking about our loveable friends, trees. Deciduous trees (oaks, maples, things that don't have needles for leaves) all look dead and desolate over the winter, but we know they are simply dormant waiting for spring.

Go nuts grey squirrel!
I remember the first grey squirrel (Latin name, Sciurus carolinesis) I had a long term relationship with. I know what you are thinking, that sounds like a funny thing to say, but it's true! When I was working out of Lebanon Hills Regional Park, there was a resident squirrel. Her name was Foxy, often referred to as Foxy Cleopatra, and we saw her most every day. She had a bright white tip on her tail, lived right outside of our offices in a burr oak tree, and spent her time watching the different activities going by and cacheing acorns for winter. As I started to have this more intimate (if you can call talking to a squirrel and watching her live her life intimate) relationship, I began to notice different thing about her and started to actually dive into the squirrel deep end.
