New lurker approaches

[eternal_pupil]

I just signed up today, I didn't even know this was something i wanted until i stumbled upon it. And now I am obsessed, i am not in dire straits or anything like that just want that sense of adventure back. I missed the sense of wonder of what was around the next corner. I am excited and expect to make my first run in 12-18 months.

Welcome!

Welcome!

New today myself. Welcome!

As I've posted, I did my stint out of choice but I reckon two years is enough to figure out what it takes to make it a lifestyle choice.

There's a lot of fun in building up the necessary kit, and changes occurred during the two years. Going to a garage sale is given an extra dimension - I like this bowl, but maybe it's a bit big  .
 
In these days of uncertainty (Ha! Have they ever been certain?), I'd advise anyone to build up a car rig, just in case. Great for holidays, meantime. Great mobility with a car, and much less conspicuous at night.

I found that good manners and respectful politeness were of great value. I had a battery shaver, and sometimes went somewhere (library, for example) to charge it up. Rather than plugging it in secretly, I asked a member of staff if they'd mind. I was never refused. In the movies, this might happen several times, the interacting with the same member of staff. Then they fall in love, and ...

Star in your own movie!

Cheers!

Well I fish a lot and most fish cleaning stations have public access to a plug in. Lots of fishy smell but not much love around those places, although a woman that can clean fish is highly valued! Lol!!!

I got cornmeal and enough oil to deep fry, just bring the fish.

Oh I also have tarter sauce as well.

That may explain why he is acting the why he see, it is still no excuse to throw out insults and bad words.

Welcome to the internet! I’ll be hiding until I get vaccinated but once I do I might celebrate with a good old fish fry!

Can we get a few frogs in private them too?

A sacred animal to the Navajo. When I first started teaching on the reservation I studied the culture before going unlike many new teachers. One biology teacher ordered frogs for dissection in her class. She went out hiking the next day and never was found. Coming from Arkansas when I asked my students about her disappearance their only question was if I had ever eaten frog legs. My immediate answer was nope! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
