Ever have one of those

Recommended Posts

Started off the spring break with visions of sheds laying all over the place and me, my wife and son finding at least a few of them. But no......too much snow to get into our favorite spot, plus two new inches of snow on top of that while we were out.

 

So after 4 days of getting skunked in the horn department we decide to spend our last hoorah over at Roosevelt Lake. I mean, I know it has been a long time since we have been there but....when did they institute the $10.00 parking and boating pass???? Plus is there no lakeshore camping anymore?? Plus I throw everything in my box out there and can't catch one dang fish to save my soul.......then to find out the Cats lost by two points.......

 

So at the end of the week, no horns, no fish and no final four??????

 

Still one of the best weeks of my life out in the Arizona open spaces with my wife and kid, wouldn't trade it for the world.........this is a great state for enjoying the great outdoors.

Gas dryer quit, backhoe tire went flat, ranger tire got a hole in it the size of a dime, fired up the boat inboard 350 alphamax hydrolocked, pulled plugs, sprayed water, block cracked on a 6K engine. I'll trade you.
