Ever since Josiah was chillin' on his Mom's bed while she was getting ready for work, and he heard the news person saying that Spring would be here in 2 hours (!) he has been chomping at the bit to get out with his new tackle box, fishing pole, fishing sun glasses, and fishing hat and catch some FISH!!! He bee-lined it to PaPa and let him know that it is Spring and that it's time to go fishing. PaPa had to put him off for a few days....only until yesterday when his daddy went and scooped him out of bed and surprised him. He told him that he was leaving for camping and fishing with PaPa. Giving him a few minutes to wake up and sink in....he was one happy camper.
Dressed plenty warm, because it's chilly on the water, he was ready to leave in just a few minutes with his PaPa.
More than ready to hit the road....he gives me a wave. (I didn't remind Chris to smile. He is so photogenic if I remind him....go figure)
The fishermen headed up to a friend's home in Onsted, MI, then out to Devil's Lake and Round Lake. They got a huge haul of croppies. Does the little guy look ready? He fished for about 5 hours. Jim Johnson said he was impressed with his persistence with the fishing. After this, Chris pretty much forgot about the camera.
Then, to camp for the night, they went up to Jerry Ross' home, right across from Michigan International Speedway. He has a small lake. They popped the little guy int he boat and tied him to the dock. He was happy for hours. When he was on the dock....PaPa reminded him to stay on the dock; he got his line tangled in the weeds and was trying to get it out....and below was how he looked after he "got fished" out of the lake....soaked. He stood up after he fell in and the water was up to his waste. "That's cold." He was cold and wet. Good thing to take a picture of, right? PaPa said that was "a lesson well learned."
