Today we went down to the rouge river to do the first fishing of the year. There were patches of new ice here and there among the weeds, from the previous night's frost. But it was a beautiful sunny day and Ken tried out a new frog lure that turns out to have an entertaining "swimming" / splashing motion. We caught nothing.

rand()m quote

Selfish leaders increase risk by placing themselves first. It's a fundamental mistake to assume that what is good for us personally is mutually exclusive to what is good for everyone. That kind of zero-sum game is for cowards, and in the end, we all pay the price for this type of latent, toxic leadership.
