Fish, Fish and More Fish....

 This past weekend Garrett was in pure heaven. His good friend Stanley Cox flew in from Arizona to go Salmon fishing. These two spent lots of time down at the river fishing.
 They started fishing on Thursday afternoon and got one, then Friday was a great day by noon they had each reached their limits of a total of 4. They had caught some big ones that morning.  25, 21, 15,15 pounds. After the kids got home from school we all headed back down I caught a 15 pounds and Madalyn got a 16 pounds. They were really hard to reel in, but really fun. So they caught a total of 8 salmon this weekend, all of the fish together weighted over 100 pounds. Stanley took some meat back with him and we have a lot of salmon in the freezer.
 Brooklyn actually did well in the boat and kept her life jacket on.
 Natalie enjoying driving the boat. They always fight over which one gets to drive.


 They also love to clean the floor of the boat with his scrub brush.
 We were leaving and the kids decided to throw some rocks in the river. Surprisingly no one got hurt.
 Me and my fish, he was a fighter.
 Madalyn and hers.
It's really fun to watch these two work. They have it down to a skill what needs to be done. They were like two boys in a candy shop this weekend.
