    Ice

    As some of you know, I don't usually complain about little things. This is just crawling under my skin though.

    Last week, I went by my brother's, in Mont Belvieu, to exchange fish for venison, on my way to Louisiana. I stopped along the way to check out a few places I have been wanting to fish. When I got to Beaumont, I decided to buy some more ice to put on the vension, to keep it from thawing.

    I stopped at a Valero, got a 14 pound bag and it cost almost as much as a gallon of gas. Made me sick, because I know of several places to get a 20 pound bag for .99. If I had seen a grocery store, near there, I would have got it there.
