ive been gone a while (DUW)

well, i havent been on here in several months. i havent even been home in a while. i have been working on a fishing boat in montauk, which is the eastern most end of long island, new york. i have been there since june. while there, i lived with my freind on his 46 foot silverton (yes i lived and worked on a boat). he worked on another fishing boat.

during the summer we fished for fluke (summer flounder), then when the season closed we swithed to porgy (scup). i worked 12-13 hour days, 7 days a week. i didnt really mind the hours since i have been fishing ever since i could walk. so to me it really wasnt work .

now, i am home for the winter. it was a great experience and i made a ton freinds and money. i plan to make a few trips to montauk and get some fishing in this winter (i think im going again next weekend). i cant wait to do it again next year.

damn, i remember when u came by my house to pick up those corner lights in the summer, you've been out there all this time? long island still is beautiful, even though its immensely overpopulated.

yea man those lights are on the car now. thanks again. total cost for hood, fender, headlight, corner light, and header panel = $450. i think thats pretty lucky for hitting a deer.

it is definately a beautiful place, but from queens to riverhead there are a lot of people. you should see montauk right now. it is a ghost town once the summer ends.
