A Different Kind of Catch

We got "skunked" yesterday. Joe, his dad, and I packed sandwiches and went fishing after work. When we got to the fish hole, fish were jumping all over! We were so excited... but absolutely no fish!! In fact they were eating flying bugs on the surface. What an irony that fish were jumping everywhere but where we casted. Otherwise, it was a picture-perfect evening at the river. So tonight, Joe practiced his fly fishing skills in our back yard after dinner (fly fishing is more effective when flies are hutching and fish are eating flies). No picture of Joe practicing, for it was not quite picture-perfect. It was fun watching, out of his reach. He almost caught a morning dove mama in her nest. Poor thing.Here's a better picture and a different kind of catch. Joe finally finished re-varnishing our 10 dollar dresser. We must say this is now the best piece of furniture in our bedroom! Better yet, it's the most expensive piece other than our bed!!
