    Default Yet Another First


    I am a very fortunate man this week, much more than usual. My Daughter brought my Granddaughter to our house from Florida for a week long stay with the Wife and I. Seeing my Daughter for a couple of days over the 4th holiday is just so much icing on the cake. They arrived last night late and a good nights rest wasn't in the plans for Camryn and I. 4:30 this morning we got moving and launched the boat and headed to spot #1. Camryn caught her first Crappie and we had a super time. We saw C1BigOCarp on the water where the bigger fish were more active and we boated a couple of keepers and enjoyed a good visit. As is the case with young ones ( Camryn is 6 ) boredom overtook her and it was time to go. Other trips will follow this week and it took me a while to learn that when it's not fun anymore it's time to go. We were home by 9 and our fish were given to C1 to help with his limit. This Grandpa is floating off the ground this evening, having had a very special day with a very special girl. And this girl is made to do this, she lips the fish, kisses them, and sends them on their way with an enthusiastic thank you. After the holiday traffic dies down we will hit the water again, and I can't wait. Here's a few pics from today, thanks for sharing this with me.
