I hear they have a stand that offers deep fried cheesecake this year. As good as that sounds, I\u2019d trade it for cool temperatures and a bit of a breeze. Anyway, we\u2019ll be playing shows at 11, 1 and 3 both days.<\/p>\n<p>When last we briefly spoke, I was about to embark on my second day of fishing on the Missouri River. After only catching a couple small ones on Wednesday, my hopes weren\u2019t all that high but right away, I started getting action. Several undersize ones at first but that\u2019s okay I just enjoy the catch. But then..well, let the pictures do the talking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2841\" style=\"width: 586px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.keloland.com\/lund\/files\/2013\/06\/fishing-007.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2841\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2841\" alt=\"Even when the fish were on break, it is so soothing to be out on the water.\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.keloland.com\/lund\/files\/2013\/06\/fishing-007.jpg\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2841\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Even when the fish were on break, it is so soothing to be out on the water.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2842\" style=\"width: 586px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.keloland.com\/lund\/files\/2013\/06\/fishing-006.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2842\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2842\" alt=\"Ft.
