Family Fishing Weekend

Ok time to back edit the fishing weekend! Yay for computers!

Well fishing weekend went awesome, and we had lots of people there. Billy Brandt brought his daughter and John Mark (sorry if i misspelled) actually had some time off to come visit. Man o man when Billy and him get together, watch out! In between dragging each other behind snow mobiles and doing flips directly onto the ice, the Brandt brothers entertained us all with thier high spirits and love of life.

We actually fished too, although snow mobiling was more popular amoung the younger crowd ( I recieved a text message from my brother and Trish, threatening me if i got on a scow machine they would amputate an appendage). While the more serious fishers went for "big ones" I used Billy's snoopy pole to get some small game. After my first trophy catch, Scott and I traded the lucky snoopy pole between us. It was Blue Gill city at our shanty, for a total of 3 fishes! And surprisingly enough our meager catch was all anyone pulled out of the water, but we remained in a great mood and all had fun.

While fishing a bunch of us took off on the snow mobiles to scare up some fun on the way to town. I can't say much about that because I remained safely on the ice in my shanty. There was break downs of equipment over the course of the weekend, the most notable when we went for pizza to the Grove and the machine Lisa drove wouldnt start.

There was so much going on that it is hard to get it all down. I finally got to meet Hailey/Haley, billy's daughter and we got to know each other a bit, I wish she lived closer, she is a fun person. Uncle Gilbert brought a friend who brought with him several snow machines so that more people could enjoy the winter sport. Mike was there and he always livens things up at camp with his spunky attitude, and Lisa played Hostess for us since she is living at the farm for now.

The day everyone left for home we had a huge Ice storm and Dad and I stayed at the farm since the vehicles were covered with an inch of ice. We left the next day after watching the race (Daytona 500 I think), and had an uneventfull trip home.

Thanks everyone who came and made the event the better for it. ^^. I hope we can make it a yearly thing.
