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.
For one thing, Allen had to row
the boat all around the 146-acre
lake because his electric motor

would not work. 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.
