Happy Mudders day

It is Friday once more and Friday’s are for fun. I have had way too much fun this week already and am just hoping that I don’t get caught. 

I hate to start a post with an apology but the only way I can write this  is in my native Minnesota accent which might make it hard to read.    Here in the twin cities we don’t speak Minnesotan very often, just on the weekends when we go up North, or occasionally after a couple of glasses of wine. 

You see, da opener* is dis weekend and we all go up nort to go fishin, doncha know.   We bring Mudder wid to celebrate her special day, ya you betcha.  Dis year we went to da Walmart and got her a tackle box of her own, den.  Last year we got her a big knife to make is easier for her to clean da  fish, Mudder really likes dat knife.   Now she can really chop dem heads off doncha know.  Ya sure, ha I meant da fish heads.

Last year we had so much fun at da opener doncha know.  Mudder made a wonderful hot dish and some bars too.  We went fishin and drank at lot of beers.   I don’t remember much after dat, except how hard it was to get da fishin hook out of dad’s ear after my brudder got a little wild wid dat fishin rod of his, den.  Dis year we are going to catch da big one, ya you betcha.

Have a great weekend.  For those who are going up North for the opener get an early start, the evening rush hour will start at 6:00 am and last until midnight.  We have some construction, or is it destruction on 35E North.  For all the moms out there have a great mothers day and please be careful with those knives.  For instructions on how to get a hook out of an ear, any size, child or adult, the ear not the hook, just drop me a line. (Ya sure, you betcha, dat was a bad pun)

*In Minnesota opener always means the beginning of fishing season.  There is also the Governors Fishing Opener, which will be held on Leech lake this year.
