Today's Fishing Trip

Just as I figured. It was super hot and I didn't catch a thing. I did have a fish on my hook one time, but I guess that's the "one that got away". Doug caught a blue gill and a big catfish, but he threw them back in. I got to drive the boat a little. I went really fast. So fast that my pink Walters State hat blew off and when I tried to get it back, I ran over it with the boat and it was not to be seen anywhere after that. Anyway, I have proof that I went. OF COURSE!!! I TOOK THE CAMERA!!!

Here is Doug judging how far back he needs to go to get the boat in the water. When he got it in, he was trying to get in it without getting wet by walking on the tongue of the trailer. Well guess what? RIGHT! He fell in. I wish I had gotten a picture of that. He has gotten so fat that he couldn't get his legs untangled from the trailer. His phone was in his pocket so I guess that's ruined now.

I finally got on the boat, after getting Doug untangled and breathing again.


Finally! We're actually out in the lake, instead of sitting on the side trying to get the boat started! That boat is very tempermental.

This is our next boat (dream on Vicki, dream on).

We actually made waves!

Doug had to bait all the hooks. I ain't touching no little fish or worm!

Looking out over the "bow of the ship"

The water was real calm, unless the wind blew or another boat went by.

A couple of old hippies, before the one lost her pink hat.

"This is my good friend Mr. Croc. Actually it's a piece of wood, but I pretended it was a crocodile. And what a beaut it is!

I thought I had found a huge marijuana bush, but it was just a tree.

I'm queen of the world!
So much for our fishing trip. And I wasted $5.50. We didn't even get stopped and asked for our fishing license! Oh well, wonder if I'll go again? Time will tell. But if I do, I'll be the one getting the boat off the trailer.

About Me

I am now an RN. I love taking pictures, especially of my grandchildren. I love taking care of people and wish there was more time to do it. Management puts so much paperwork and picky stuff on us we really don't have time to do the job we are destined to do.
