Memorial Day

For Memorial Day we decided to go up to Warm River Springs and have a picnicwith our friends, Jon and Kristi. Then Darren and Jon would stay and fish and the rest of us would go home. It turned out it was a very windy day but that didn't stop us. Our first stop was to feed the fish. You had to have a good throwing arm to combat the wind and to get the bread out far enough. Here are a few shots:

I tried to get a shot of Kristi, too, but it didn't work out very well.

After a pretty drive we got to our picnic spot.

The whole gang (except for me - I'm behind the camera:-)

Then it was time for a little fishing.

Everyone watching Kevin's close calls with fish biting but not hooking (or whatever the proper terminology is - I'm sure that wasn't correct)
















The boys admiring Darren's small fish he caught.





















While the others were fishing, Jake played in a puddle.















And the highlight of the trip for the boys was spotting a frog and talking Darren in to catching it. Back to his boyhood days of catching frogs.
