Fishing...a Family Tradition
Does your family enjoy fishing? We do!! I don't know what it is about fishing - I don't like touching the slimy bait, nor do I relish taking the fish off the line. It's all about the catching, I think. The thrill of pulling in "the big one," and the bragging rights that follow. And the camaraderie. There's something just right about standing on the shore in the serenity of a perfect day. This year, just before Father's Day, we went fishing with my dad at a local pond. Can you see the fish she caught? It's so cuuuuute! We all had fun catching fish, and for some reason, I caught a whopper! There it is - I didn't really want to hold it or be too close to it, though. My dad always made us kiss the "weenie fish" or hold the big ones for a picture. Still does. As you can tell, he's actually holding the fish and I'm gingerly putting my thumb inside its' mouth. I like catching fish - I just don't like to...
