We arrived back to North Carolina just in time for Thanksgiving. We plan to be in Coats for the month of December to enjoy time with my Mom, family and our friends. We'll take care of annual appointments, do some shopping and complete the yearly motorhome maintenance items. Many of these topics are not blog-worthy, just everyday living experiences. Therefore, I may not be posting much until January when we'll be in Florida, our winter destination.
Before we left Rockport, Ron enjoyed one more day of fishing on the Aransas Port Rock Jetty.
Ron caught a 36" Red Drum. We did not have a net, we had to borrow one from the older couple you see here standing behind him. They were as excited as we were to see this big fish come out of the water. Ronnie had the required Texas Fishing License Tag for Drum over 28 inches needed to keep a Red Fish of this length. Ronnie filleted the fish (this took a while because it was so big), we prepared a portion of the fillet for that evening's dinner and froze some for later too.

Wow! What a delicious meal it made..fresh fish that evening and we enjoyed more of it last night too.
