The Samoset received a customer comment card from one of the folks on a package with me way back in June the comment was “The fishing trip with Don was fantastic! Kids caught 20 fish, saw a bald eagle & seals! An amazing morning & a highlight of our trip!” It is great to know when you are getting it all right. So often I can’t tell or don’t know what folks are really thinking about their trip.
Monarch butterflies are everywhere this summer in fact I had one fly in the window the other day while I was leaving the public launch in Thomaston, and have seen many others far down the river over the open salt water. We have not had any around for the last few years but this summer they seem to be everywhere. I can’t explain why they should be back this summer in such numbers but I am enjoying having them around. The teacher at our house has already gotten some caterpillars and put them in a clear observation box with plenty of milkweed.
My schedule has been a little less frantic this week with only one party each day. On the days that I a striper fishing that has me home by noon. I have been able to make progress on the pile that had accumulated on my desk in the last month. I somehow wound up as the project manager on the local chamber of commerce web site project and that has of course added to the workload.
