We just got back from our annual fishing trip with the family and boy
did we have a good time. We were gone for 4 days. My in-laws reserved a
double spot, plenty of room for all the grandkids to run around, and for
the adults to have enough space to spread out. Thursday night we got
ready by setting up camp. We just bought a new 8 man tent with 2 rooms.
This was large enough for us to have a little space and set up a bedroom
and a have a card table and chairs in the other room. Every day we were
there we saw deer. These deer would venture into the our camp, and get
close enough for us to see the details on their faces. On Saturday the
kids made friends with a chipmunk. This chipmunk would get really close,
then run the other way. It was looking or food so the kids started
giving him whole peanuts in the shell. He would then stash the nuts and
come back for more. This whole cat and mouse game went on for about an
hour. The kids loved it. We also had flocks of hummingbirds. The camp
host had multiple hummingbird feeders up and invited us to come over and
see them all. I think we ended up counting at least 5 different types
of hummingbirds. We also fished just about every day we were there. I
ended up catching 3. I always feel sorry for them when I fish.. I have
this guilt complex. When we got home tonight we ended up eating them for
dinner. It was really good. They were all rainbow trout. We tried to
catch our first mackinaw but we had no luck. We were told it was the
wrong season. Better luck next time. Im exhausted and need some rest.
Until tomorrow..
