Sitting at my computer playing in an on-line poker tournament when I looked up and this is what I saw. The most beautiful rainbow was there for about five minutes. I thought it was really neat. And then it was gone!

Short post, Long trip.

Went offshore with Ron Schlitt yesterday. Two of the best photos are below. The first is just to show how calm the Gulf of Mexico can be 44 miles off shore. For most of the day it was so calm, we could have been on a mill pond. We did have a bit of rough water later in the day when we started for home.

The second photo is of Ron holding a 32" amberjack that Jerry Berberet had just reeled in from approximately 150 feet of water. Amberjacks are known for their fighting ability and for pulling all the way to the boat. When you boat one of these bad boys, you know you have been in a battle.

The other suspects on this trip were Ed Mitchum, Larry Iman and me. We left the dock at 7:00 A.M. and got back at 5:30 P.M. completely worn out.
