As you can all see from my little nifty counter over there, I only have roughly TWO days before leaving on the BEST VACA EVER!! I am so excited about every single thing with this trip. There is so much potential for amazing views and wildlife and trophy fish that I am having trouble sleeping at night. I CAN’T WAIT… So…….today I am cleaning the house and stocking the fridge for the house-sitter. Then…it’s on to the good stuff. I am packing my bags and taking stock of my tackle box. Now…my tackle box is full, but I bet I could fit one more lure into it. That lure I sneak in is gonna be the lucky one…I AM SURE!!!

But alas like with every vaca…there is of course one small problem. A few days ago I was flipping through the pages of the album of my last Pike fishing trip, and I realized something. I do not look very womanly when I fish in Canada. As a matter of fact, I look quite frumpy and fat. Now I know this is because of the layers that one must wear to…you know…not DIE of frostbite but still…for the last two or three days, I have been stressing over how to make myself appear more girly while fishing or at least while being photographed with a fish

See…I know you guys don’t think about these things, and I always take some pretty girly products along with me when I go…like nice shampoo and conditioner…or nice soap…these are things that make a girl feel good when she gets off the lake after a day of smelling like fish slime and goo. BUT…I want to look like a girl in my photos. I mean whats the use in catching a Monster fish in Canada if the fish is prettier to look at than you in the damn photo. (Okay I know that if I am catching Monster fish in Canada the fish is definately gonna be the awesome part of the photo…but it wouldn’t hurt to be a sexy fisherbabe while holding it right?)

I have been asking folks for suggestions…and they have not been too helpful. One friend suggested I wear pink…well I do wear a pink parka but then I just look like a big fat man in a pink parka so that is really not helpful. Another chickie offered to bedazzle my stocking cap…LOL ummmmm yeah probably that’s a no!!!! I might want to look like a woman but bedazzling isn’t even in my vocabulary…LOL!!!!

You know…sometimes life just isn’t fair. Men look so hot when they fish…all manly and dirty and stuff. I do not understand why it is impossible to look like a supermodel while holding a fish…but I am going to figure it out. So I am off to the make-up counter to find some awesome new crap to slather on my face that won’t come off and will make me look like Heidi Klum no matter how much fish S**t I have on my face!!!

Happy Shopping All
