Work: What a Concept

Jo and I have been assigned this week to the company-owned Rattle & Reel hunting and fishing shop. Our job has been to check in the thousands upon thousands of fishing lures. These all are bar-coded and we laboriously check off each batch. We do muse about the possibilities of catching fish with worms like everyoine else in the world. Apparently that's no longer a reasonable option.
When we get through with a carton, we take a breather and stroll the store to check out this rarely seen world - at least for us!
"C'More Deer turbo-charges your hunt", the jug says. It only costs $59.90 a gallon.
"C More Bucks" is a hunger stimulant.
"Deer Cravin' Sweet Seduction" makes you believe in something that seems highly unlikely. In addition, there are Turkey calls that clip onto your rifle which you can pull while you sight on the turkeys. And there are copper 50-caliber hollow point bullets (20 for $25.99), while the platinum version is a bit more expensive. Boy, this is an expensive hobby.
On top of all these things, you will need to purchase the hunting suits that seem to have a thousand oak leaves sewn onto them ($280 for the top and the bottom) and then there's the moist towels that you use to eliminate human scent.
As we looked at all of these possibilities, the wonder is that there is a single deer or turkey or duck or fish out there. They don't have a chance.
The weather has been nasty: cool, drizzly. We run our propane heater in the motor home until bedtime. Then we huddle under the down comforter with the cat pushing in between us to borrow our body heat.
Looks like we'll be doing inventory control for a week because there is so much inventory that has just shipped in.

If you'd like to view Leisure Point RV Resort on Google Earth, just open Good Earth and type in the following address: 25491 Dogwood Lane, Millsboro, DE.

You'll see a very wooded site with hundreds of boat slips. We're located on the little lagoon at the top of the screen. Nice neighborhood.
