Today was supposed to be the day that everyone was going to go fishing. Warren and Jim reserved a pontoon party boat for the whole day on Diamond Lake. Unfortunately the Taylors had to go home yesterday, but Kathe and Jim decided to take the boat for a private party anyway. They asked me to go with them, but I declined the invitation. It's too hard to sleep on a rocking boat, and I do need my sleep.It turned out to be a sunny and warm day on the lake. Jim knows his way around boats, so they were off and running in no time at all. He had to get a fishing license and sign a whole bunch of paperwork before they were able to start out on the water. The water was calm and there were very few boats on the lake. Kathe packed a picnic lunch for them and lots of snacks.
Jim caught two very nice size rainbow trout and was hoping for more. Dark clouds started rolling in at about 3:30 so they decide to head back to shore in case it stared to rain. Most of the day the water was calm, but in the afternoon it was a little choppy so they were glad to call it a day and head for home.
Right now we are hearing loud thunder off in the distance and hoping that we don't get any lightning or rain this evening.
