I finished out the season by finishing projects in POC. We did the kitchen remodel in two stages. The first half was before Tax day flood and Hurricane Harvey. I got aide tracked and finally had enough. There wasn't a whole lot to shoot at other than redheads. It was just my wife and I do I let her decide, fish or shoot redheads. She chose fish. So when we needed a break from the remodel, we just went a couple miles from the house and spanked a few fish. The bite was on but a lot of dinks. We caught enough for supper so that was appreciated. Flight after flight of redheads buzzed us as they went to an evening feed. I just got through with new axles, hubs, tires ect..... all was well until I heard something odd. I looked in my side mirror in time to see my driver side fender 40 plus feet in the air and a three foot piece of tire tread beating the living snot out of anything it could touch. I liken that piece to something no less than Thor's hammer. I for the life of me couldn't imagine a new tire blowing out. With it went the fender, the fender step brackets, the center bracket and the tail light. I went to put the spare on and sitting on the trailer I-beam was a big treble hook with one hook broken off. All I can figure is my tire picked up the hook and flattened tire as we went down the road. I ordered the parts and they were delivered the next day. New tire and back in the saddle ready for the opener.

Blow outs suck. Place is looking great. Love me some time down in POC.

yes they do
