Good luck. Water is dirty dirty in close. Didn't have time to get out to the islands today. Caught a bunch of school trout and a few decent ones this morning. It started a little windy this morning, then laid down flat calm, then got nasty after lunch.

You're right. I did my normal arriving in the p.m. routine. I waded in front of Wally World at sunset to check the conditions more than anything. Got 2 week strikes but didn't hook anything. I'm now drinking a canned miller fortune in the condo watching baseball. We'll be at the Marina at 5

love the ice balls. the good ice ball makers are ridiculously expensive though.

I've wanted one of those Death Star molds for a bit now
-
didn't know they had one. it's pretty cheap comparatively. sure it doesn't work nearly as well as the table top ones, but the ice should hold the same.

Mine was $10 at bed bath and beyond and works perfectly

Headed back to the metro with a cooler of fish and miller fortune cans. Haven't seen those anywhere else except the coast. I think it's even better in the can

Money's not that bad. In MS the cash value of a teacher's retirement package at 53 after 30 years of service is going to be around $450,000 if they don't get an inflation adjustment on their pension. You put two teachers together and you end up with both of them retired at 53 with $1M or more in value in their pension in a state that doesn't have a particularly generous state pension compared to other states. And that's ignoring the potential healthcare benefits that some retired teachers get. Lots of couples have jobs that people think are higher paying and realistically aren't going to be able to generate that kind of stash by age 53, even if they lived on a teachers salary the whole time.
Of course this is assuming the teachers actually get those pension payments which could be an interesting question in some states going forward, but just pointing out that teaching is a lot better compensated than people realize, and shouldn't be discouraged from going into it because of money. It's true that your cash compensation up front won't make you feel rich and you probably won't be taking european vacations on two teachers' salaries, but it's still a plenty good financially and will make you a millionaire in lots of states.
