Ben fishing the Sauk |
Summer? Where has it gone? It seems as though we only had a few weeks of incredibly nice weather, before the days started getting shorter, nights cooler & sunrise later! Even the air is starting to smell like fall! At least in the mountains!
Ben gets off the bus~ |
Ben is back in school, so his days of doing what he loves are shorter & shorter! Even so, once he's off the bus, he asked to go fishing! He caught a big humpie by snagging it on a gill! They were that thick in the water!
It was just an amazing day to be outside! I love making the drive up to Darrington, even if it cost me $100. to not quite fill the tank in the Bronco! (That with my grocery store discount!)
Skyla at 5 1/2 months |
Skyla is growing by leaps & bounds! She can now roll-over, but once over - the fussing starts, because - now she needs to learn to flip back! Mommy has taught her to go 1/2 way :-) That way you can reach other toys & not get frustrated! The best part of any little sister's day though, is having big brother come home!
Ben greets Skyla :-) |
The best part of mine, is spending time with these two & their Mom! All too soon, the leaves will be gold & that crisp feeling in the air... will be Fall!
Bring that fish right over here to my skillet, please!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great fishing picture! That river is just beautiful- what exactly is a humpie?
