Here Fishy Fishy Fishy....

Saturday was beautiful. The sun was diffused by just the right layer of clouds to cool the day down without chilling it too much. Sam got off work early, so we set out on a fishing expedition. I was so excited to spend a day in the mountains with my favorite person, and bring home some fish to grill up!


We drove up through Shell and into the Bighorns. We found a great part of the river and set up camp, ate lunch, and cast out. After a while it became obvious that if there were any fish in the water, they were not interested in lunch. So... we packed up and tried a stream we found a little way up the road. Finally we found fish.... the size of my hand! That just was not going to work. Some of the little fishies were not even big enough to bite my hook! Five streams and a dried up beaver pond later we ended up throwing all our fish back in and headed home.


Sounds like a bummer trip, but it was no such thing. We spent a great day enjoying nature in all its beauty; escaped from everyday stress; and enjoyed each other's company. What more can you ask for in today's busy world?
