Fishing trip

Well, it finally happened - Lonnie took me fishing. He's been promising for about a year, and last weekend, we drove over to Daingerfield State Park and drowned a few worms. He caught one fish and I caught a dozen! Of course, we threw them all back because four of the six brim were really small, and all seven of the perch were smaller than that! But we had a great time. When I caught the largest brim, there was a family standing nearby, and the little boy in the bunch looked to be about three. He was all eyes when I brought the fish out of the water, so I laid it on the pier and invited him to come take a closer look. He didn't try to touch it, but I think he'll remember it for a while. And of all things -- I forgot to take the camera!
