Reeling It In

My dad and brother both heat their houses with a wood stove. Which means lots of wood needs to be cut. Bob's a good sport and goes to cut wood once or twice each time we're in Washington. This trip was no different, but his help really paid off.

The wood cutting men (minus Ethan who did help load the truck this year) got to take a day trip and troll the John Day River Steelhead fishing.

They loaded up early and headed out for a fun day of fishing.


Each of them got to reel in a fish.





A great catch for all.











Bob's was the only nonnative fish so they brought it home. The kids were so happy to actually get to see Daddy's fish.

They all had a super time and are already talking about making this as much of a tradition as wood cutting! Sounds like a great vacation tradition.

That sure looked like fun. Can you believe the size of those fish? No fish stories this time about the big one that got away! Way to go boys:)
