May 26thMemorial Day ’15: Golf, Pool, Fly Fishing

Friday I loaded a literal truckload of baby stuff and we headed to Fredrock.  My pictures from the weekend got a little out of order, and I used a lot of HB’s pictures, so my bad.  We played a round at Gauntlet.

C-Note had a couple of amazing drives.

I ended up breaking 100 again!  And Gauntlet is no easy course.  Special thanks to my caddie, WinnDixie.

EF loved the water.  She kicked like crazy under her float and loved splashing around.

This diamond crown (figurado no. 6 maduro) was insanely good.

Every meal we had was delicious, as always.

Savanna had a photoshoot.  Cameras on cameras.

There were bebes everywhere this year.  The times have changed.

Thom and Marteen enjoyed a romantic twilight paddleboat ride.

The sky was beautiful.  Marteen pulled out his long lens (pun intended) so we could see the planets.

This was the first time I had my new fly rod out.  I managed to catch four fish.  I got a couple large mouth bass, a blue gill, and either another blue gill or a crappie (I couldn’t tell which).

EF had her first lil taste of homemade biscuit.

Thom boated out to where I was fishing to bring me a refreshment.

Daddys don’t let your babies grow up to be cowgirls.

EF LOVED Bentley.  She was giggling and so excited when he came around.

Everybody was able to catch a fish.  After Thom snagged one, I commented that I was in the wrong line of work, and should have been an adventure guide.  I’ve helped/taught my buddies to fly fish, squirrel hunt, upland hunt, etc.  The guys on the shore said they’d just been talking about how I’ll make a good scoutmaster.  Thats probably the best compliment I’ve ever received.

As always, HB and I had a great time.  Pam-ela and WinnDixie were amazing hosts as always.  Our hosts, RyRy, and all our friends really made it possible for EF to have a great time too.  HB did a really amazing job, and EF took like a fish to the water.  I can’t wait to take EF to the beach, and then back to the pool.
