Snakes....not a fan at all. Creep me out. Especially after water mocs at the lake when I was a kid. Gives me shivers! Can still hear them.
Probably would enjoy if I didn't know what it was! :biggrin:
This time of year I start to get the itch! (Please share some Q-view!)

Dirtsailor this is my fishing house view.Its on a bend in the Crookhaven River about 1 kilometre as the pelican flies to the ocean. Its a little relatively unspoilt village of fisherman,oyster farmers & others. About 2 & 1/2 hours from Sydney feels like another world.Fishing pretty good this year. No eels though!

They're brain sucking good :) Never thought I'd be sucking out shrimp brains and liking it..
These are your basic shrimp scampi style. De-vain the top / back of the shrimp. Stick of butter, 6-8 cloves of chopped garlic and shrimp. Add some white wine half way thru. The fresher the shrimp the better the dish.
Sounds like my kind of town!!!

Sounds great! We eat a bunch of shrimp/prawns and are always looking for more recipes!!! We like to make Salt Pepper Prawns following this recipe:
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon five spice powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 6 jumbo prawns, head and legs removed, optional (presentation is fun when left whole)
- 2 cups corn flour or potato starch
- Vegetable oil, for frying (about 4 cups)
- 1 tablespoon finely diced garlic
- 1 tablespoon finely diced red Asian shallot (we don't have an Asian market so we use what we can get)
- 2 chiles, sliced (we typically use Thai chiles, but for milder you could use jalapenos)
- 4 spring onions, sliced into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 lime, quartered
In a deep fry pan or wok, bring the oil to 350 degrees F.
Dust the prawns in the flour and fry 2 prawns at a time in order to keep the oil at a constant high heat. Cook the prawns about 1 minute. Remove the prawns and place on a rack set over a baking sheet or on kitchen paper towels to absorb the excess oil. Repeat with the remaining prawns and set aside. Carefully remove the fry pan or wok from the heat.
Place a separate fry pan over medium heat, and add a dash of oil. Next add the garlic, red shallots, chile, and spring onion, and cook until fragrant. Now add the fried prawns, tossing as you sprinkle the salt, pepper, and five spice mixture, making sure you coat the prawns well.
Remove the prawns and serve with lime.
My grandmother makes some killer seafood! She was a crabber up until she retired. We used to go along on her boat & I remember catching small sharks, octopus, jellyfish & all sorts of other marine life when I was knee high to a grasshopper. She won't give up any of her recipes though - not even to family
Sunset across the desert
I snapped this shot of a friend of mine on Paulina lake. I took about 50 photos, waiting for him to stand up and start flipping flies, The "epic shot". Took him so long rigging that the sun set!!! If only he'd known!
Guess what we have today!
We have about an inch!
One hour after the snow started.
Had to take a snow shot with Cold Big Poppa waiting there.

Wes are you anywhere near Coinjock NC? I stopped there at the marina once while on a boat delivery. Had the 32oz prime rib, came with a football sized potato, salad, soup, bread and a quarter of pecan pie. That steak fed me for the next three days!!!
I wish. I'm in the north west most corner of the state. I'm about 30 miles from Tenn and 30 miles from VA. I'd love to be on the coast next to all them nice fishes... :-)
Damn, that would have feed me for a week! Sounds awesome!

Wow Kathryn, for a second I panicked when I saw the snow around your pool. I thought "How is her pool still open?" then i looked at your location and remembered that the ground doesn't freeze there the way it does here. I have an in ground pool but it's been winterized and closed since September. lol
LOL I drive through Coinjock NC every summer on my way to OBX. Will have to check out that steak place you mentioned. Thanks!

It's quite the steak! http://www.coinjockmarina.com/restaurant/
We have a place south of here called the Cowboy Dinner Tree that serves a similar steak. When you make your reservation you either order the steak or the chicken. The steak looks more like a roast (super good though), and the chicken, its a whole chicken!
Once in a while I get close enough to Clearfield to swing by Denny's Beer Barrel Pub & see if anyone is trying the burger challenge. They have some SERIOUS burgers there! 4 of us went there once & split a 15lb burger & we couldn't finish it - too much beer taking up space
