I spent a few days in Snead's Ferry with friends. They put me to work as soon as I got there. It seems as if the tide was falling and it was just right to go shrimping. Shrimping had opened on the inter-coastal waterway or at least a certain part of it was open and you had to be careful to stay in the guidelines or you would get a ticket! The first pull was disappointing. We got 9 shrimp. Not 9 pounds, just 9 shrimp!! The next pull was much better and we headed back home with a good haul. Of course J had a meeting so M and I had to head and bag the shrimp. When J got home he and I went out in the boat to fish the crab pots. After culling the small and female we had enough for supper. What a feast and out on the porch with the breeze it was great. We followed this with cutthroat?? bridge. It is almost too easy.
The next day was filled with great stuff. Eating at the tea house on the water side in Wilmington, shopping, eating at my nephew's place, Havana's, in Carolina Beach and finally meeting with M's daughter and her family at the ice cream place for dessert. What a day.
We watched "Duplicity" that night and what a strangely made movie. The changes in times kept you so confused you could not follow the plot.
Back home today and I fixed shrimp scampi. Yum. Tired and lots to do tomorrow.
