I allways had hoped to get dad up here. I know he loved his life in Little Rock and would never trade it for the world but still. I started crabbing this week I decided not to go back to work (Ive been a little off and wanted to do what dad would like "you arnt happey about your weight are you son (no dad ) well do something about it (yes dad )"Its not just the work out ,its the making money ,not earning money. Theres a difference for me I like working for my outfit but if I can generate money where there wasnt any with my hands and smarts it makes me whole some how. So last night I was out till 10pm setting 10 pots in the moon light on the frozen sea I knew I have made the right choices. This morning I did a spot check three pots $200 in crab not bad going to set another 10 tomorrow. The best part isnt the money ,I'd make more swinging a hammer, it's doing something dad would love.

You go for it Adem! It is vital to make a living that quickens you - that leaves you feeling alive and makes you stronger. I can also remind you of the love that radiated from Dad when he'd been out flexing his muscles and testing sinew of his body against the earth. I can also recall the sparkle in his eye when he retold his experiences of fishing with you. Good on ya mate... and take a page from Dad's book and day by day make more healthy choices for food too. If it weren't for the damn Navy subcontractors and its toxic substances Dad would a gone another 20 no doubt about it.
Keep on Krabbing Bro! I would like some quiet time on the ice to think about Pop.
