I was out on the water at 06:30 again this morning, fishing and watching the sailors, paddle-boarders, and kayakers. And dog watchers, joggers, and guys on the tour boats fishing for salmon. Such a great way to spend an early morning, I am blessed.

Not with fish, mind you. But blessed. Since I've been back I've done the gamut from the Ashbridge's marina to Frenchman's bay, missing only the Rouge. Think I might have a crack at Tommy Thompson park in the morning.

rand()m quote

Society is indeed a contract... [the state] is a partnership in all science; a partnership in all art; a partnership in every virtue, and in all perfection. As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.

—Edmund Burke
