I woke up this morning with plans for a pretty full day. I wanted to go fishing in the pond belonging to my daughter and son-in-law. Later, I planned to run into Greenwood and purchase groceries and supplies. Of course, the very first thing in our house is to tend to the babies.
9:15 am - Trying to encourage our new baby, Sissy, a long-haired
weiner, to come down the stairs and go outside.
Today is Sissy's 14 week birthday.
9:18 am - Sissy thinks Pepper, a wire-haired weiner, is her mommy. She pesters poor Pepper beyond belief and Pepper shows tremendous patience.
9:30 am - The entrance arbor to our back yard is covered with Jasmine. The flowers have the most beautiful fragrance.
9:33 am - This magnolia really smells good, too.
10:45 am - Got my trusty golf cart loaded up to go to the pond and try to catch some dinner for tonight.
11:20 am - I spent 12 minutes wearing this fish out, he wore me out, too. Just after I took this picture, I cut the line, did a little fishey CPR, and sent him on his way. We don't eat grass carp.
12:10 pm - I've got enough fish for dinner, time to reward myself with a cold brew.
2:10 pm - Headed to Greenwood and passed this sign leading to "Promised Land." Yep, that's the name of the community!
2:35 pm - Wally World (aka Walmart) the store that has everything from donuts to diapers.
3:40 pm - I ran the aisles as best I could, got a buggy full to load in the truck.
4:05 pm - Charlie B's. Gas and Fried Chicken. 
6:37 pm - Fried Crappie (also known as speckled perch,) Hushpuppies, Collard Greens and Cheese Grits. Yum, yum!
Bonus Picture - I just couldn't leave out a picture of Annie, our curious kitty.

Boy Daddy, that red fishing rod and reel sure looks like mine :) are you keeping it wet for me? Since I have not had it wet myself in 2 years now :( Long over due for me, it's been calling my name very loud this past couple months! Might have to come borrow it back. I love you and yes that was one hell of a carp!
Thanks for participating
Full enjoy at one place...Golf cart Alberta
I could have used some of that tasty looking fish, hush-puppies and grits while I'm laid up here with the messed up ACL. :-) Enjoyed your 12 of 12 - the magnolia was my favorite shot (next to the one with the hushpuppies) and your new real puppy is adorable.
Great job as always Corky, I definitely agree you earnt that cold one.
Great shots this month, Cork. The new baby is adorable, and your dinner looks really, really good, except for the collard greens. As I recall, they're bitter. See you next time. :-)
I can't believe all the flowers that are in bloom! We have a new puppy also - but a great dane puppy, so it's a little larger than your addition!
Awwwwww, Sissy is SO CUTE!
Gotta love fresh-caught fish.
Thanks for sharing!
Great photos and 12 of 12. Thanks!
What an adorable new puppy! And aww, very cute seeing her with her new "Mum" ;-)
