Fishing in the RainSaturday morning I got up early, put on my long johns,dressed quietly, made my lunch, grabbed the dog,slipped quietly into the garage to hook the boat up tothe truck, and proceeded to back out into a torrentialdownpour. There was snow mixed with the rain, and thewind was blowing 50 mph.I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio,and discovered that the weather would be badthroughout the day. I went back into the house,quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. There Icuddled up to my wife's back, now with a differentanticipation, and whispered, "The weather out there isterrible."She sleepily replied, "Can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that shit .."
