River July 2008

We had a blast at the river. I was the champion fisherwoman, I caught two 5 lb walleyes and one 7 lb walleye, I also caught more walleye but they weren't as large as the other 3 . Paul and I also took time go on a 4 mile hike in the Effigy Mounds.

A lot of people have been asking if we had any damage in the storm that came through with 100 mph winds. We were not home, but our plants had the most damage, the house was fine.

Here are two of the 4 fish we caught up at the River in June. Both of the fish in these pictures are ones I caught, both 4 lbs.

Grandma and 15 of her 16 children, celebrating her 80 1/2 birthday.

Our new nephew born on May 30th. We were able to make it to the hospital to see him. I think he is going to be bigger than Paul and his brother. What a great addition to our extended family.

Paul & I have been doing yard work outside this year. We went down to the World of Mexican Pottery and picked out two very large pots for our front yard.
