Starting Seeds…The Cure for Spring Fever!

It is April 19th and it is snowing outside. Snowmobiling season has long been over and ATV season has not yet begun. These are the “dead” months here in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.

A Good Day Fishing

April 30, 2020 ~ Finally it was my turn to catch some fish!  We have started riding our bikes to various fishing holes along the Turkey River from our campground, Skip-A-Way Resort, here in Clermont, Iowa. I love to ride my bicycle, and if I can ride it to go fishing…well, that’s like double the joy for me. A few years ago, I had bought a collapsible fishing pole at Bass Pro Shops. My thought
