Pardon My Interruption: Craig's Thoughts About This And That
“Don’t ride that ride after eating a bunch of junk food!” That’s what I would have told this 12 year-old kid at the Ector County Fair if I hadn’t been so busy snapping his photo. But, he probably didn’t need me to tell him what his stomach already had. 🙂
This guy was so focused on catching some pigeons that he didn’t notice my presence . . . until he heard my shutter. By that point I had my photos, he had missed his meal, and his dinner was turning back on him. In the end, the birds chased him back into the cave.
Personally, I don’t eat the stuff, but it is my wife’s favorite green on her plate, and it’s now available at the market.
If you are interested in fishing in the fresh waters of the Sea of Galilee in the near future, you have until February 28, to wet your hook because there is a fishing ban coming into effect from March 1, 2010 until February 28, 2012.
It seems the fish population in the lake needs to be replenished, so a plan has been put in place to fix that problem. You can read the whole story, which is being reported only by Israel National New, here.
And for those who are worried about being able to still get fish in Israel, the large number of fish farms in the north should be able to supply the market, but I would expect an increase in price.
Now, where did I put my pole? I’m scheduled to be at the Sea of Galilee just before the ban takes effect, so I need to find my pole.
Due to good winter rains this year, the Galilee is green and lush. And this bee keeper is out in the field priming his boxes for what he hopes to be a good honey harvest.
