Looks like you'll be close to my neck of the woods this weekend. Hope the weather cooperates for you. We've had a pretty unsettled weather pattern lately with lots of tornadoes. Had 2 funnels pass over us Tuesday night along with golfball size hail. Lost a few trees in the mix. Hope your friend has a fraidy hole (storm cellar) handy just in case.

Fried crappie is mighty fine....mighty fine. I had a worker one time whose parents naturalized here from Peru. She brought some crappie for me to try one time that was before sushi became so big around here. She thinly sliced small strips of raw fileted crappie and then put them in lemon juice with a few sprigs of cilantro and let them marinate overnight in the frig. At that time I wasn't to up on eating raw fish, but she told me the lemon juice kinda cooks the fish in a different manner and that it didn't taste raw. I tried it and she was right. It was downright tasty. Probably would be real tasty fixed like sushi draped over a stuffed sticky rice roll with some wasabi and fresh ginger.

Hope you have a good time here this weekend. - OB1

Yeah, the weatherliars are predicting more storms over there. I know you guys have had it pretty rough over the last couple of months, so far the camp has escaped anything too serious but it has come close a couple of times.

I’m taking my mountain bike so I can hit Cedar Glades, if the rain isn’t too bad. If it is, I’ll just veg at the camp.
