No longer dipless on the water

I didn't use tobacco in any form for the first 50 years of my now rolling downhill like snowball headed for hell life. But I do use tobacco now, in smokeless form.

 

How I ended up on Lake Norman this morning without a dip felt criminally negligent until just a few minutes ago. As we were watching Cliff Pace pause to put the proper clips on the fish in his livewell, I realized I had a fellow dipper in sight.

 

Yeah, baby, all is right with the world now. Tip of the hat to Cliff Pace for helping me continue my quest for mouth cancer.
