My New Fishing Pole!

I forgot to bring my fishing tackle, so I had to go into the North Bend Walmart to get some stuff. I found this nifty little pocket rod called a “Pro-FISH-iency” Pocket Combo. Nice!

65 Degrees and No Smoke!

Our Filipino-American Campout 2024 - Monday Evening August 12

We arrived Monday afternoon. After getting the camp set up, it was time for dinner. Then a campfire, conversation and games.

Pork Hock Adobo

Rose made pork adobo for dinner, using pork hocks. I love pork adobo. It’s very full flavored, simmering the meat in vinegar, soy sauce and 7-Up…yep, 7-Up. This makes very flavorful meat and a rich broth that goes nicely over steamed rice. It’s typically served with fresh sliced cucumbers, whose light, delicate flavor balances the robust flavors of the adobo.
