Tom Chopin Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Gravelly Bay is getting better the water has warmed up to 43 degrees from 36 last weekend.

dennyb123 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 read the word's in the quotes....... Wow, that went way over my head. I'm a "jerk" for not reading posts more carefully. Very cleaver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Chopin Posted April 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 No worries, I was a little crytic in my posts..... more fun that way.....I figured my OOS Essox would raise a question as well...... I invented a new game, instead of 'where in Niagara is this?' it's "what the heck did he really say?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
