They talked about the camp fire that they cooked their hotdog dinner in. Wes was very excited to tell me about the fire and how it shot little fires up into the air like fireworks.
They also got to play with Salamanders and Peacocks (that kept them up all night).
They went fishing that morning really early and caught a fish (trout) in about 20 seconds. Orrin said that the fish were biting like crazy (ready for breakfast).Then they practiced casting and played around the pond. Wes was very proud of his fish.
Wes loved fishing! (I think uncle Tyler has a new fishing buddy.) Now, every day, almost a million times a day, he asks us if we can go fishing again and bring Brad. We will definitely take another camping trip this summer. There are so many beautiful places here.
I told Orrin that if they caught a fish that I would cook it up for them for Sunday dinner. I had never cooked a fish with eyes before but I think it turned out pretty good.

Who had to clean it out? I hope they did. We want to take the boys fishing sometime but I am a bit stuck in the part between catching it and cooking it. What do you do with it? Glad they had fun! Next year we can send Elijah and Brad too.
Wes looks likes a big little man standing there with the fishing pole!
Oh, the tales that have come from that trip. I don't think we'll ever hear the end of them. A HUGE thanks to Orrin for getting Packer out of the water before he swallowed it all up.
Father and sons outings are wonderful! They loved it and so did I.:)
That sounds like a lot of fun! Congratulations on your fish Wes! It's not every fisherman who can catch a fish on the first try.... That salamander looks YUCKY!!!! Good thing you didn't eat that!
