A Day Outdoors

Invited Jenny and her children (our grandchildren) to come and spend some time with us yesterday up the canyon. We found just the perfect spot for young ones to threw pebbles in the river. Of course grandpa (me) told Adyson and Lexi to go ahead and throw all the stones in the river paticularly where those fishermen are fishing. Hm...okay, I was polite and asked them to wait for a few minutes that the fishermen would leave and they did.

While my princesses, and Boston played along the river bank and threw some stones in the river, Papa was able to put his new fly rod and reel to work. To everyone's amazement, it only took a few minutes and Papa was yelling "Fish On"! Funny I didn't see the other fishermen catch anything in the same hole.

Grandkids got a kick out of seeing Papa catch the fish and some of them even watch me let it go. Of course it was Boston my grandson. Adyson and Lexi were off in a fairy tale of their own and soon lost interest in the fish.

Ended up catching two fish for the day, landed one and had several good strikes. Finished fishing around 1:00 PM and we just sat in the picnic area and caught a few zzz's and Cheryl read.

Another wonderful day in the Great Outdoors! Thanks Aydson, Lexi, Boston, and Jenny for spending some time with us up the canyon.
