Cribbage fatigue

The sun is finally peeking through the clouds but the thermometer in my car is registering a nippy 55 degrees.
Down on the docks, there are a few people wandering around but the slips at Destin Fishing Fleet Marina and HarborWalk Marina look disappointingly full.
The whitecaps in the Gulf of Mexico are visible from the docks behind AJ’s as waves crest over the jetties. It’s going to be another slow day at the Rodeo.
“You could fish today but why?” says Rodeo weighmaster Bruce Cheves.
Rough weather has saddled the Rodeo for the past week. The slow days have even made the Rodeo office’s crew grow tired of their much-beloved, slow day past time — cribbage. The games lately have been described as “hours long” and everyone appears to be exhibiting cribbage fatigue. Everyone except Rodeo chairman Tim Broom who has become an avid cribbage convert.
“He’s not burnt out yet,” said Rodeo assistant director Marion Palmgren.

What was the date the Mako shark was caught ?
How could you not post the date ? Why wouldn’t you post the date ?
Maybe you should re-write the story !! , for those who want to frame it
and show the date it all happen.
Thanks, Don
