fresh water please!

Fresh Water

I think I'm ready to get back into it after my two month absence.

Tough call on which to choose. Some of the best times of my life have been spend along a cool stream. Slippery Rock Creek in western PA is one of my old haunts. Great trout stream. Big enough to swim. Plenty of spots to find seclusion... So freshwater has it's draw to be sure.

The ocean has a sense of mystery. Fishing in the ocean is so exciting because you never know what is going to come up. Crabbing on the Outer Banks or trolling for marlin off the coast of Belize, it's all the same body of water. It is a big wow to be out in the middle of nowhere and have whales surfacing around you. Or when dolphins play in the bow wake. Or the feeling of having your sea legs and rolling with the movement of the boat. What about being out on the ocean at night where you can't see anything but the stars. Truly amazing.

But for now, I have less than a month before I head to Mexico for a week with my wife. All we've been talking about is the private hot tub with built in room service call button. I've been told one whole day of our vacation will be spent right there. (sure I know it's bromine and not chlorine, but go with me on this one) So the one that sounds the best to be right now is chlorinated.

FRESH. WATER :)

Jim! Welcome back! We missed you. :)

Chlorinated Water for me.

In ten days I'll be in Minorca (Spain), so I'm going for salt water!

Fresh Water for me!

Hi, I`m in. Fresh Water for me, please.

Hello.

I live on island, so I'll go with salt water.

I am a total newbie.I have a couple questions about this challenge. Do I ask them here?

Sure, Lisa. Feel free to ask!

Carrie, I'm jealous. That's a far cry from me. I'm surrounded by soy bean fields...lol.

Fresh water for me- will be floating the Boise River this summer

I love the beach and living on Long Island it would have to be salt water.

Absolutely! There are lots of wonderful people here to help you! And I should be around most of the weekend too.

Joyce,
I live on Long Island too. You would think I would choose salt water also, lol. But I still spent much more time in pools than in the ocean. My ankles are really all that got wet in the ocean.

If it is not too late I would love to join in this month. And I would have to say salt water. I love to sit out by the water and listen to waves. So very relaxing.

Not too late! =)

The anticipation has begun to build. What will I be reading this month? What will the categories be? Will I have trouble finding a book the other person will like? Oh boy!

just remember, whoever gets Jim has to give him lots of historicals to pick from because he *loves them sooo much* ;)

I really, really want a like button right now! =)

You people are evil.

I really, really want a don't like button right now! =)

you know you love us jim ;)

Give Jim to me! I have a huge backlist of Historicals to recommend to him ;)

Hehe, glad to have you back Jim! You know you will get some good smut from me if I get you (and not historical smut ;)

28th May... shame that I still have forever to wait until the correct 28th of May for the topics. It's been a while for picking books, so hopefully I'm not too rusty on choosing for someone.
