Thanks @Wehner Homestead!
Maybe when you start eating they will want to eat. But I usually don't eat either until my son wants to eat.

They both drink a cup of milk first thing and I think that holds off their appetite. I figure that there’s worse things that they could be drinking and eating so I roll with it and let them have brunch.

Coffee is ready. And I have Arnicare cream for my aches and pains, glad to share if you have been working hard outside. Or for what ever reason, you may need relief. Arnicare is pretty darn good stuff, sure helps the arthritis in my knee!

Plenty of aches I just put up with. Like the old adage about Real Texans....they never wear sunglasses (I am and I don't) ...they'd rather just squint.
My latest aches are self inflicted. My wrists and elbows are wore out from casting artificial baits. Little ones, big ones, I don't care.

Getting them out of the weeds and lily pads is sometimes a chore.

And, running the trap lines. This one didn't make it. Never under estimate the power of the conibear 330.....

Nice fish @greybeard. Tomorrow you can host the fish :drool fry brunch.

Conibear 330? I like it!

I suck it up for most things, but Arnicare helps make it bearable. I used to have a long stride, swinging gait. Now, my stride is a limp. I have dismounted from my horse and just crumpled up in a heap because my knee wouldn't hold me. Knee replacement is on my list.....in about 2 years.

Careful with them..they are unforgiving. More so than a foot trap. As a friend told me just a couple days ago, 'The don't hop much after they've done the 330 dance'. That one never knew what hit him and I'm going to set another tomorrow in the same place.
I have the proper tool to set them with, but still don't like handling them with the safeties off. Get one on your hand , you won't get it off by yourself.
They make smaller ones..a 110 and a 220 but they are too small for beaver.
