I have to say it’s a pretty blustery cold April day out. 🍃

I am kind of glad I decided to stay in town during this long weekend. It would be miserably cold outside for April and I’d have to worry about downed tree limbs from the trees and sparks from the camp fire. Plus everything is so damp and wet from all the rain we got yesterday. Saves money too staying in town. It’s only going to get nicer as spring comes.

President Trump to open more wildlife refuge land to hunting, fi –

The Trump administration plans to open 2.3 million acres of land for hunting and fishing at more than 100 national wildlife refuges and fish hatcheries under a proposal unveiled Wednesday that is aimed at giving Americans more recreational access on public lands.

The plan earned applause from several hunting and fishing groups, but criticism from one conservation organization that called it “tone deaf” to focus on this during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The proposal would allow fishing for the first time at several national wildlife refuges, including San Diego Bay in California, Alamosa in Colorado, Bombay Hook in Delaware and Umbagog in Maine and New Hampshire and Everglades Headwaters in Florida, according to a list posted online.
