Yesterday we decided that we wanted to take the family fishing. So we packed up what we thought would be the perfect lunch (since we had had a lot of hotdogs lately) and headed for "the hills." Unfortunately our first site choice after 2 and a half hour drive turned out to be closed. No fear we felt we just went 20 minutes the other direction to another favorite spot "Silver Creek." Here we did picnic which ended up being an experience in kid food vs adult food ending in Doug and I having a lovely lunch 
and Saddie enjoying lots of "people food" while the kids loaded up more on the giant Cheetos (oh well?). Then after investigating the HIGH water and speedy current we loaded up again and headed to Sage Hen Reservoir. After another movie length drive (THANK GOODNESS FOR PORTABLE DVD PLAYERS) we finally put our poles in the water. I enjoyed a small hike with the boys to the dock. It was truly beautiful. Ethan and Saddie scared a snake and Ethan saw his first, out of the zoo, Bald Eagle. I loved this Geese family swimming on the water and took too many pictures of them. Kimberly and Doug the die hard fishers DIED HARD. They didn't catch anything except a glimpse of a frog but as reported by all three kids it was a fun day. Of course we did ask the question at home while eating pizza, but I think they really did have a good day. Here's to Summer!
