I'm Back!

After last year's hog roast, I was left without a functioning camera due to spilling a mixed drink all over my nikon. It took some major operation to get the SD card out of the memory card slot once it was filled with a strawberry margarita. By the way, it wasn't my margarita. But anywho...I am once again armed with a camera and am looking forward to doing a little blogging.

A few months ago, Troy and I (brainstorming while buzzed) decided to take dad to Reelfoot lake for father's day. Since Captain is tired of getting neckties and old spice, it seemed to be a good idea. We were wrong....it was one of our best ideas.

Troy posing with our first day's catch. Well, that's not accurate. This is Troy with the fish that we caught that we were able to get back to the dock. Your probably thinking, "they must have thrown all their fish back". Wrong again. On the way back to the dock, our stringer of fish tangled with the 8 hp motor on the back of the boat. Although, the motor could barely push us around the lake, it will rip a stringer of fish from the side of a boat.




The lake is full of these man made cut-throughs. These served as a great place to get out of the wind.









Absolutely one of the best all-round vacations I have ever taken. Perfect. Happy fathers day Cap!

Yo B,

Good job by you and T-Rex. The Captain don't smell any different with Old Spice anyways.....

Ain't it funny how the first stringer of fish never makes it back to the dock. Strange.

Nice pics too there guy!

Next time, tie the stringer to the anchor. You usually remember to pull the anchor up after a short distance. Seriously, ya'll have a great family.
