Fishing

Over Columbus day Scott took the family fishing. We went to Strawberry and had a pretty good time. Well, we started out having a good time and then the winds started. The kids each caught a fish and we had caught a trap full of crayfish. But when the wind started out little fishing boat was no match for the huge waves. We were of course on the oppisite side of the lake from the lodge and we could not get back. We ended up finding a little cove with another boat of fisherman, getting on shore and building a fire to keep the kids warm while we waited for the wind to calm down. It took about an hour, then we tried it again, we finally made it across but it was so bumpy and we were soaking wet and freezing by the time we got back to the dock. Logan was convinced that we were going to die.

That night we stayed at the lodge and the next morning the lake was as smooth as ice. So we went back out again, mostly to make sure we hadn't tramatized the kids. Logan and I both caught a fish and the kida again liked the boat and the water.
