How to fish without actually catching anything.

This is my last Idaho blog, and its pretty pathetic that its taken three weeks for me to get everything posted. This one is kinda long though so you just got to stick with me. Fishing with my father is always a treat. Not only do you get squishy worms, and slimy fish, you also [...]

How to make a margarita.

First: Get a margarita bucket.   Second: Cut open inner bag. Dump into washed bucket.   Third: Add a bottle of tequila.   Seriously. A whole bottle of tequila.   Well maybe not the whole bottle.   Fourth: Stir.   Fifth: Dispense!
