I got to looking up guides on the internet, which got me to looking up boat rentals, which got me to looking up cabins (for the boys to stay in during Easter Moot).

Then I got depressed.

LOL!!

It appears they'll be staying in the tent...but that is just fine.

Yeah! Paddlefish!

You know how Steve analyzes stormwater runoff for polution content? Well, this guy monitors fish. Scuba dives down and checks out fish.

He told Steve that he's actually seen catfish so large that it frightened him!

I usually just bake a pork loin with salt, pepper, rosemary, and garlic.

Ok...that is what I'm gonna try...it's very very small, though...I think what? 275 degrees for a couple of hours? Covered with foil?

I'll have to look it up in the book....thought it was around 325 to 350 and 20 minutes per pound. I'd seal the whole thing in aluminum foil.

...but then again, you might want to brown it before covering it...forget the wrap part!

So this guy probably knows a couple good spots to try, sounds like.

I wonder how big a catfish it takes to scare him.

I have the oven set at 275...the whole thing is probably a pound. I'll check it here in an hour...

You think?

Oh, and I didn't have any rosemary...I used marjoram. Said "Pork" on the label...

Sounds okay. I usually go by what the cookbook says.

Majoram should work....I just like rosemary better!

I'm hoping it will be somewhat tender...I seem to never be able to get meat I cook tender! unless I boil it in some sort of gravy or something...

Don't think I've ever come across naturally tough tenderloin...of course I have overcooked it before and that makes it kinda chewy! Nowadays I try to cook it just until the juices run clear.

It's just such a tiny little thing...it's a foot long probably, but about 2' thick.

Most of the time I get a pork loin for roasting....I usually end up slicing tenderloins and doing 'em on the stovetop.

Is that what I've got here? Tenderloin???

Can I take it out and do it on the stove?
