As you might have noticed, there haven't been any recent updates. That's because we've all had a hectic, but enjoyable summer. So what have we been doing? We've spent a lot of time at the campground fishing, quite successfully I might add. Kerry wins the "largest fish" contest though. She caught a very nice bass as you can see from the picture below. (She set him free so she can catch him again next year!)
Gary and I did a lot of fishing too. We weren't as lucky (or skillful) as Kerry, but we caught enough bluegills to have a nice fish fry. I was the lucky person who got to clean and skin them all and Gary did the cooking.
I also had one memorable fishing moment - I caught a snapping turtle. See the picture below.
That turtle was not a happy camper. He kept snapping at Gary while he tried to remove the hook embedded in his leg (I snagged him, he didn't go after my worm), and then suddenly he swung his head around, yanked the hook out and spat it on the ground! We were amazed.
Anyway, that's what we've been up to. Hope your summer has been going well too.
UPDATE: Diane wanted me to mention that we've enjoyed watching hummingbirds at the campground all summer. The picture of the little fellow below was taken right off Diane's deck while we sat their watching him.
