saturday. time for another shot at beaver lake. i packed up the fishing stuff, the canoe and louie and off we went. not as empty at the campsite as last weekend, and the ice is officially all gone!!

louie in the bow

i also packed the pellet gun and we both had some beer.  it was sunny, and i wore sunscreen.

all loaded up

We caught 4 fish.  only 1 was keepable sized, but we didn't keep it.  let it go to catch it again.

yea fish!!

On the way back to the truck, we stopped at our usual camping island.  the new canoe performed awesome.

the ripper.  good times so far. 

The island was not as we left it.  some people decided to build a big log thing.  not sure of it's purpose yet, but it's there.  seems like more than an elaborate way to store firewood.

the log thing

We spent an hour on the island shooting cans and chilling out.  a pretty amazing camp spot.  might be back next weekend, with tents.

louie showing how it's done.

Then it was back in the canoe and back to the main camp site.  we fired up the chainsaw and then the fire and then some smokies.  like i said, it was fuller than last weekend, but not as full as it will be next weekend.

You should come may long.  there will be a special guest and the usual suspects.  It will be good.
