Oh man! I've been missing everyone!

[Lisa Almquist]

Hey! I gotta catch up with everyone! I'm officially on spring break right now and holy wow, I've missed all my HSO people! Nursing school is kicking my butt! How's everyone been? Any good fishing stories or pics? I haven't been on the ice ONCE this year and would love to hear 'em! Anyone try a new lake, new technique or get something really cool you can't live without (like me and my ever handy Chubby Darter that I use for just about every species over the last year?! )

School is still going great, I'm still on the Dean's list and keep your fingers crossed that I will be an LPN this summer. I'll keep going on to get my RN but I am officially NOT taking classes this summer. I'll be job hunting and fishing and generally trying to have a life without textbooks and clinicals. yeah baby!

I never made it on the ice this year either Good luck on your education.

Keith and I were talking last night about a gathering next weekend. I will talk to Jim and see if we can get together.

Glad to here school is going well! Say Hi to Dylan.

Hang in there! Daughter got her RN last fall and is loving it. Hard work though. Good idea to take the summer off and rejuvenate the brain cells!

I just back from Piggy Perchin at Appeldoorn's, fished Fishapalooza last weekend, Winnie with some of the LakeJumpers, Lawrence lake fishing contest with the Lake Jumpers, spent a weekend at Luther Park in Wisc. fishing with Char - Hope - and Hope's niece, my lake as much as I can get out there, went to the Shack is Back benefit, and I am heading to Burntside on Friday with Char and Hope. Oh yeah forgot to mention Appeldoorn's on New Years Eve weekend. Ice fishing has been kicking my butt this winter, but I keep trying. I did get a 23-24 in eelpout at MilleLacs (eew).

[Lisa Almquist]

You're fishing a lot! Glad you're having a great winter Barb! Did you get sunburnt this weekend?

I did Mark! That is one nice fish! Good job! How'd you guys do yesterday? Dylan is doing fine, got himself a girlfriend and REALLY needs a haircut. Teenagers! Ugh!

[Iambjm]

I got very sunburned/windburned this weekend, but it sure felt good being in the sun for 3 days straight. Gonna head out on the lake in about 30 minutes searching for the elusive crappies. I have been seeing a lot of ads in the local papers for LPN's.........hint hint

[hopeforfish]

I have done some fishing but just lost my Job so I am spending weekdays Job hunting, updating the resume and all that jazz. I will be going to Burntside this weekend with Barb and Char but then who knows. Keep up the good work Lisa.

Hope

[Lisa Almquist]

Thanks Hope! You and my Jim both! He's been unemployed for a few months now and there's just nothing out there right now for him. He's enjoying his time off and I'm glad you are too!

[MarkAlm]

Keith and i had a slow day , manage to keep 8 crappies and 5 sunfish. Dad went today ( tues.3/9 )with a buddy and each caught a limit but I have not spoke to him yet to get details. This was a message that was passed on to me.

[Iambjm]

Well my lake is still kicking my behind, 4 hours of fishing with only one crappie. Didn't fish today, needed a nap.

[Steve Foss]

Well, Barb, at least this weekend you'll get a break. You can get your behind kicked by a whole different lake at the Burntside Bash.

[Steve Foss]

Fishing was good today, Barb. Good luck up here.

[Iambjm]

But Paul from Appeldoorns says I can shut down a lake faster than anyone he knows.
