Kenny Ray and I hauled down supplies for my mom and sister Friday night down to the farm for their weekend visit. He and I got up Saturday morning and went fishing in the Pond, we caught several fish 2 really nice 4lb Channel catfish. I came home Saturday afternoon but Kenny Ray stayed as Dave and Dan came down and a couple of other boys with them , one with purple hair
and another boy that comes from a anti hunting family. Kenny Ray said dad they would not even fish or swimming in the pond as the water looked dirty, all they wanted to do was watch TV and play video games. It is a shame, what those Boy's are missing. Then their is Kenny Ray who has bad allergies and a touch of asthma, he said to me one day It's not fair I want to be outside all the time Dad but these stupid allergies.
I ended up at Greene county Fish and game club by myself Saturday evening after coming home and feeding the chickens as Tari was at her Aunt Pam's house. I fished til dark catching 2 nice channel catfish I brought these home and filleted them out for my Lunch one day this week.
On Sunday Tari and I went and picked Strawberries, about a gallon and a half. She mad a nice
strawberry pie.That evening she and I went back to Greene county and went fishing for a couple of hours. We did not catch anything it was very hot.
Monday morning went and took care of chickens they are ready to butcher they have gotten so fat they can hardly walk. I have an appointment for Thursday morning for the first 40 chickens. Kenny Ray and I will spend the day in Greenville as it is about an hour and half from here, we will just wait on them. I cleaned out my old and worn truck in the afternoon just waiting on Kenny Ray to get home. He got home around 3pm , we talked and he went in to the refrigerator to get some tea and seen my catfish filet's in a bowl," hey dad come and fry this fish"
there went my lunch. He and I decided to go back out to the club and fish that evening but as pulled into club it started raining, I said son let sit here a few minutes and see if clears up. We just sat there about 15 minutes talking, and then he sang " i am against fishing in the rain". It is from a Hank Jr. song "I am for love". I can not hardly stand it when Kenny Ray is gone somewhere without me the house just seems so empty and quiet. Even as I write this morning I can hear him breathing/snoreing in his room across the hall.When he is gone my home is just a house, he walks in the door it becomes home.
