Robert Frost – The Road Not Taken

Words to live by The Road Not Taken By Robert Frost Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the...

Pink Shirt Day 02/25/15

Pink Shirt Day 02/25/15

The original event was organized by David Shepherd and Travis Price of Berwick, Nova Scotia, who in 2007 bought and distributed 50 pink shirts after male ninth grade student Charles McNeill was bullied for wearing a pink shirt during the first day of school. In Nova Scotia, Nova Scotia Premier Rodney MacDonald proclaimed the second Thursday of September “Stand Up Against Bullying Day” in recognition of these events. In 2008, the then Premier of British Columbia, Gordon Campbell proclaimed February 27 to be the provincial anti-bullying day. It was then celebrated on February 25 in 2009. In 2009, Boys and Girls Clubs worked on pink T-shirts that say “Bullying Stops Here.” and “Pink Shirt Day” for Anti-Bullying Day. In 2012, The United Nations took a stand in the Anti-Bullying campaign and declared May 4 as Anti-Bullying Day. In the United States we celebrate February 25th, as Pink Shirt Day, and promise to Stand Up Against Bullies. So don’t be a bully, and go make someone...

Tagging a potential world record Black Marlin

World renowned fisherman, Guy Harvey and his crew, are trolling the open waters on a mission to tag black marlins. Guy and his crew successfully tagged a bunch of black marlin, when they received a radio call from another World Class fisherman, Neil Patrick, who has hooked onto a massive fish and had been fighting it for hours. Guy Harvey and his crew decided to sail over to catch a glimpse of the monster fish. The fifteen foot long black marlin had jumped above the surface several times which is impressive for a 1200+lb fish. Instead of landing the marlin for the world record, Neil decided to have Guy Harvey jump in and hook another line to the fish. It was a big thing to give up a world record fish! Guy faced a new challenge, as he now has to get face to face with the huge fish. Guy hits the water and at last 40 feet underwater he approaches the biggest black marlin he has ever seen. Working very carefully, Guy attaches another fishing line to the marlin, quickly then after, the crew rapidly helped reel in the large monster to the boat and successfully installed the research tracking device, allowing the research team to track the distance the graceful fish...

My First Redfish | Caught in Jupiter, FL

My First Redfish | Caught in Jupiter, FL

    It was a blissful evening after work and my boyfriend suggested us to take a casual boat ride on the Loxahatchee River and just troll rubber lures just like we used to always love doing. With a six pack of our favorite beverage in the cooler we were off slow trolling a white rubber fish and just simply enjoying the moment of the tranquil vibe. With the breezy weather and the magical vibrant colors of sunset melting in the sky, I was in such a peaceful place, when the noise of the line alerted my attention to react. My line was taking off and something big was swimming away with it. Dropping my drink and taking the fishing pole out of the rod holder, I hooked this monster sea creature. Turning it around to swim my way, I was reeling in as fast as I could, then as the fish approached the boat; it spooked and tried to toss the hook out of its mouth. Taking my time with the fish as it approached our vessel; my boyfriend and I were throwing out names of what we thought it could be… “Snook, No it’s a Jack… wait a minute, what could it be…is that…It is a REDFISH, Get it in the BOAT!” The surprised looks on our faces were priceless and the joys of catching my first Redfish sunk in… I jumped for joy as we brought the slot size Redfish home and celebrated the lucky chances! #ontheline stunning sunset Celebrating the catch with my Ava...
