Warmouth....

Well we are nearly done with our 2 and a half week vacation. We have been spending most of that time fishing.
We finally got a taste of summer. As you know in our posts here and on facebook it has been a very cool summer. But since we have been in KY it has been hot and humid. It hasn't hit 90 degrees yet but not being used to the weather it came on as a surprise.  It may of helped spur on summer colds on several of us, including me. Summer colds suck!
Mami and I had a lovely time scouting out a lake in Berea for fishing. At one point, on one trail, I realized we were surrounded by poison ivy so I had Mami hike her skirt up and carefully try not to let her clothes or legs touch it.  We were fortunate the woods were free of hikers. Oh, during all that I get a business call so as we waded around the poison ivy and rocks, and stumps, etc I was talking business with a client 2000 miles away.
We have a had a few opportunity to visit with CC and Miles. Miles showed the little ones around his dorm and they got to play ping pong, and pool, as well as see interesting places on campus.

Today we went fishing in Richmond, MO and caught for the first time a Warmouth, kind of a cross between a bass and a blue gill. We also caught a sunfish, and Olivia caught two blue gills.

Monday is Olvia's B-day and she already got one of her presents. She got a pink rod and reel....that's what she caught the blue gill with.

We are staying at our regular RV park here in Berea an that means lots of pool time for the kids. The swimming pool kind.  I even went to the pool but only waded for a bit then promptly went to sleep in a chair by the pool. The kids laughed because apparently I snored. Dang cold.
