It’s been a crazy, whirlwind weekend with Wayne 's brother, Chuck,  and his wife, Karen, visiting.  The guys went fishing, and, naturally, we girls headed for the big sale at the Mall.  Karen and I had a fabulous time and brought home several items.  

The men, however, didn't  catch a thing.  In fact , they ended up losing a rod and reel.  Chuck set his rod aside for just a second,  and wouldn't  you know it,  a huge fish took hold of the bait, and the rod, reel and everything else went flying off the boat, bouncing across the water while Wayne made a frantic effort to chase after it.  Personally,  I think they should have come to the Mall with Karen and me.  We, at least,  had something to show for our efforts.  All the guys ended up with were plenty of laughs.  Well . . . Karen and I laughed,  too, but most of our laughs came while in the dressing room!
