camping at St. Vrain

We caught a fish and it was THIS BIG... NO, it was THIS BIG...


A dad's job is never finished when there are fishing poles.

Patrick caught the biggest fish of the weekend. A large mouth Bass..he caught it on that little Cars fishing rod. It was so heavy, that is why he is holding the end of the pole. Uncle Chris threw it back in the pond, Bass are catch and return at this park.

This camping trip is a memorable time for all of us. chris caught a snapping turtle by the foot and it broke the line before we could get a picture. Patrick found out that kids poles catch as big or bigger fish than adult size poles. The girls fished their hearts out until the mosquitos ate them up. Papa and Nana fished, fixed meals and just relaxed. My aunt doris and cousin Kathleen came for dinner on Saturday night. It was such a wonderful visit that I forgot to take a picture. Oh well, it was so enjoyable. This is one park we will go back to again and again. Camping on the lake makes it easy for me to fish along with the children.

No wonder why Patrick is tired today.
