"I be strokin..."

One of our favorite people in Wacissa is Q-ball, his name actually originates from a story about a cue ball (from a game of pool), but I'll have to save that story for another day. Anyway, he is Daniel's Dad, Ben's second Dad, and Zach (2-ball)'s role model. I have infinite respect for Ricky, and am impressed with him and his handywork all the time!
He doesn't let loose very often (especially with me around, he thinks that 'ladies' shouldn't be exposed to some things, like certain cuss words, etc.)...but occasionally he lets himself have a really good time, and this time I got pictures!



So calm about the whole thing, ha ha

Then he got into it

With Janice and Ruby!

Twirlin' around with Ruby...
Kim got in on the dancing too!

There would have been more pictures, but my batteries were dead- I switched them around and got about 2 more minutes out of them before they just gave out.

Dancin' fools

We have a rule, that there are no cameras down the river to capture those moments (usually at night) when our thoughts aren't so clear, and those that do are supposed to use discretion about which pictures to share with the world...well someone broke the rules. Now there are LOTS of not so flattering pictures up on Facebook, honestly some TERRIBLE ones of me. But in the spirit of sharing I am posting some of the better ones- and no matter how bad they are you can definitely see how much fun we always have!


One of these days we'll get a pole on the boat, instead of the boat pole...
You have to take kinda sneaky pictures of Ben...
Not Daniel, here he is showin off his guns! ;)

Wonder what we were talking about over there...

Deisel joined us for some fun.

Dancing

Daniel fell several times that night... didn't spill the drink that time!!!
True love- ha ha- Ben picks him up while Tammy rescues his drink
Who knows...

I actually like this one...you can't see my face or anything though

No drama, everyone leaves happy! :)

Gator Huntin'

A great night for gator huntin'- tags are for Jefferson County, but don't include the northern part of the Wacissa River, so we had to venture to another place
It was too dark for many scenery pictures though.


Looking for gators, we had the Maglite and the Q-beam going. I stayed out of the way on the poling platform. We didn't see many of those sneaky suckers at first...



Daniel was getting ready to gig him, Ben was poling us to chase him down, and Jake came in handy with the light...but he got away


Do you see any?! Yea, us either. We chased a few big ones, chased a few small ones- but in the end all we ended up gettin was a bullfrog. (There's a picture but it's a little graphic)

Better luck next time boys!
