Sitting in holding pattern

[keithdog]

Well, I'm sitting here in holding pattern waitting for mother nature to decide what she is going to do. I got up at 4Am and checked the radar and sure enough, there were 2 strong storm systems heading my way. One from the NW in Wisconsin, the other moving in from the east from western Illinois. It looked like they would merge here in about 90 minutes or so, so back to bed I went. Back up now at 7Am and the system moving in from Wisconsin swung east into Michigan and the system west of me is moving slow and looks like it may be slightly shifting south of me but it's too hard to tell for sure. So not wanting to be caught in a bad thunderstorm on the water, here I sit sipping some coffee and reading the paper. Everything is rigged and ready to go including a rod with one of my secret Santas new Bandit crankbaits. I hate when this happens, and so often everything shifts and misses us and I'm like what the he**!
