YUCK!

A wet yucky crawl space to top off my last inspection of the week.

The sump pump was right at the entrance but it wasn't working. I got past it though only to find a lot more water that I didn't care to crawl through

But I soon made it much better by taking my grandson down to the lake for swimming and fishing. Before we started catching fish he had to show me how he could fly.

Then a fish or ten decided to bite his hook!

Yeah, he's contemplating having to take it off the hook. Grandpa has taught him how AND expects him to do it himself.

But you just know I had to outdo him, well OK, only on the fish, not the flying.

I hope y'alls weekend goes as well as my Friday evening. Even the thunderstorms held off until we were done fishing and back safe and dry

Harbor Village is a little lake, but has some great fishing & swimming.

YOU BET it maide my day a LOT better!
