Well, I'll disagree with that, too. Just to join in.

I was expecting a cold storm next week. That would be bad, since I need high visibility to see the fish. It looks like the storm might turn out to be strategic. It might hold off while we get to the places we need to get to, then encourage us to not go to the places we don't NEED to get to. It might be fairly cold, though. I was sweating pretty hard, despite being at fairly high altitude (perhaps 6,000 feet). Even walking in the water wasn't much better. Next week...it might be freezing at night with highs getting only into the fifties. That will make walking in the water a bit colder.
Is this just a daytime trip or do you spend the night?
It may be the whole week, though it will probably be just three or four days.
I don’t think. Of course, I stopped after the first two words.Quote:

That can be deftly avoided by not acknowledging it. Be it. Make it your reality, then it isn't a deviation.
You don't have to overlook all that much, either. Gold does have value today and likely will have value tomorrow. The fact that other things can gain more value can be overlooked because that's a different thing.
I don't see gold being any different than any other non fixed rate investment. Some come with higher risks but tend to have higher gains and also higher loses in down times. If your buying actual gold bars there's little chance of it being worthless.
I've never been one to buy single stocks or commodities. Mutual funds were my choice. At this point in my life I have moved much more into fixed income.
It is better that your income be fixed rather than broken.
I might get rained out this coming week. The weather is looking pretty wet. Fish don't mind being wet, but rain makes it nearly impossible to see them. With a forecast of 50% chance of rain every day...it's iffy.
I'm just waiting for the day when Google decides that I'm not human.

Mine was Apple, yours looks like bash.
The rain, 'tis plain, hath caused us to refrain. I won't be counting fish this week, but next.
Now I have to figure out lunch.
No rain here, just several days of really nice weather in the eighties. We rarely get rain this time of year except in the mountains. Thunderstorms and lightening. With the lightening being a real problem, causing fires.
My favorite time of year for camping was September, especially the first half, the second half could have some pretty cold nights. But after labor day and all the kids are back in school, the camp grounds were pretty empty.
Went fishing with my son today and caught a couple of bream, but released them because they were like 3 and 4 inches respectively.
Personally, I much prefer to salt water fish, but my son's been watching a YouTuber going fresh water pond fishing and kept catching "bluegill".
I had no idea what he was talking about until I looked it up and realized that it's bream.
