    Gars arrived, thanks for all your work Maui!

    Chris sent riders (tanks heaps), and the cigars look great. I will take pics tomorrow and send the pass on to the community vet on Monday.

    My choices for review:

    Take #1 Sig I Put Boli BF
    Take #7 Griffins Robusto Put LFD Chisel Gorda

    Now, I gotta come up with some good pics . Will take the pics on digital and the box camera.

    lmao - was in south LA - ya never know what those cajuns are gonna come up with! We had a lot of fun - did well with speckled trout and the red fish were moving. The two big reds were 32" and 34". The former landed pretty quick, and the latter took about 20 minutes to put on the bank. I ate like a large pig. Smoked some nice cigars. It was great.

    After several PM's back and forth, whining and sniveling on my part, flaming and cursing on Maui's part, Maui OK'ed my P/T. To make up for my shoddy offerings Maui insisted I add two more gars to the pass list, so the P/T and new list will look like this:

    T-Sig 1...P-Boli BF
    TGriffins..P-LFG Chisel
    Add
    Partagas LE 04
    Graycliff Expresso Pirate

    Attached are my pics taken today. The first one is of the most common desert varmit we have around here. The rex is a real pest, gets in the garden, shits on the lawns, and eats small children. The second is in a local B&M. I didn't have the huevos to brings the gars into the shop for the pics.

    My son and I had such a good time taking the pass pics we shot a few more to let you guys get a little more desert "flavor".

    The first is a fun contrast. In June and July, a person can take a tram from the desert floor, where the temp can be 110, to the snow on the mountain in the back ground. Right now it over 100 and theres probably 3-4 feet of snow on that peak.

    The next two are pics of a common cash crop raised in the desert. The plants shown in the picture actually grow wild and act as natural electrical wind generators. The ones shown are about 150 feet tall. All the farmers have to do is attach wires to the roots of the plant and harvest the electricity. These are a favorite forage of the Rex.

    The last pic is my house and the neighborhood we live in. Note the hardy "Rex" fence around the houses to keep the pesky varmits out.
