Our Only Carmi Adventure

As told by Mary Ringer...

[some text was replaced with less inappropriate wording, but those who knew Tony shouldn't have any problem using their imagination to fill in the actual words]

One day Dave and I decided to go try Lake Carmi.  It was a nice July day on a Monday.  We arrived at the boat launch, loaded up and headed out.  We trolled for about 1 1/2 hrs and didn't get a bite so I decided to call Tony.  I knew he was at work and I had his number memorized.  He answered the call and asked "where the hell are you?".  I told he we were on Carmi.  He said you "[fluffing buggers], why the hell aren't you at work?"  After much bashing and laughing, he told us many ideas and areas to try.  He wished us good luck and we went back to fishing.  Within 20 minutes of hanging up with Tony, a dark cloud rolled in from Canada and the temperature went from 70 to 35.  It felt like it was going to snow any minute.  I was convinced Tony had put a hex on us for fishing on Carmi.
