Fishing Big

On Saturday everyone out here went fishing. Dewy, Ryan and Nicky only got a shaker and a rock fish, none of which they could keep. We (Dad, Mom, Saylor, and I) trolled for a couple hours with no luck, then we pulled everything up and moved to a different spot. Almost instantly after we set up the poles up Mom got a bite! Dad ran over to the pole and set the hook then gave it to Mom. Since it took 20 min. for Mom to reel it in we got the impression that it was big. That fish ran like there was no tomorrow (and actually in his case that was true)! We finally got it to the boat and when we all saw it there was a ton of hooping and hollering (you could probably here us from miles around). My dad was screaming the whole time "THIS COULD WIN THE DERBY!!! THIS COULD WIN THE DERBY!!!!" The trouble though, is that we were outside the derby boundaries and we didn't have a ticket. :( :(
We are all starting to slide into summer mode. A couple days ago we got our first crew members out here and tomorrow we will be getting everyone else here. We are working on getting the lodge up to par because June 7th is when our first guests arrive!! We will have a full house all threw June!

My Life Lately

Published Picture

Every once in a while I will send a picture of an animal or landscape to a nature magazine to see if they will use my picture. A couple days ago I got a letter saying that they used one of my pictures I had sent them a while ago. It was a picture of a bright rainbow here in the bay. They put it on the back of their magazine. In case you were wondering the magazine is called Nature Friend.
