Ida’s Notebook Ida Bisser The other day my husband and I did something unusual. We got up at 4:30 to go fishing at Lake Struble in Chester County. I felt this was a ridiculously early hour to arise, but I did it. As I’d made sandwiches the night before, all I had to do was fill a thermos bottle with coffee. Allen had loaded our aluminum boat on the trailer the night before and so we started for Honey Brook, Pa. Would you believe that I couldn’t find any worms in my garden? But that turned out to be an advantage, as then, we drove to Kurtz’s Fishing Ponds to get bait and I had an opportunity to meet Mr. Kurtz again. We hadn’t seen each other since the 1940’s when we both had the same employer. It made the day worthwhile as the fishing itself was a disaster.

It took over one half an to hour to row across it as there was quite a breeze. But, he said it didn’t tire him at all and he would not let me take a turn rowing. He only got two tiny fish and I got none. There were four other parties there and they continually moved from spot to spot as they couldn’t catch any fish either. However, it was a beautiful June day with just a few large, white cumulus clouds in a blue, blue sky. We saw a deer come down to the water to drink and we heard several ringnecks nearby. Some bullfrogs were croaking in the cattails growing along the marshy edge. The best part was simply being there together enjoying the scenery and each others company. With life’s uncertainties, one never knows if we will share two or 100 more mornings like that one.
