Pictures from our Labor Day weekend fish fry. Our neighbor Bob let us fish out some 15-17 nice bluegills to add to the 2-3 lbs of Lake Erie perch and white bass a co-worker gave me a few weeks ago. We also had stuffed jalapeños wrapped in bacon,deep fried onion rings,banana peppers,French fries and wings tossed in Hooters sauce for our sides.

It rained so we moved the frying locale to our garage which sucked but still a great time. Here are some pics:

Dang it was hot and muggy!lol

We had a great time and made some memories this summer!

More Nashville! this first pic is with an upcoming star name Lanndon Lingerfieldt (sp?). Easy guys... she's only 17. Her parents drive her 6 hours from southern NC to Nashville every weekend to perform. We made friends with her and the band and talked quite a bit with her family. Great people and wow.. what a singer!




Ended things with one of my favorite bands, Blackberry Smoke



And finally, Jason Aldean.
