Ice Fishing Anyone????

Since it was my weekend off, we decided to head out for a day of fishing. Mr. Weatherman said there would be "abundant sunshine and temps in the high 50's." Sounds great, right?

Ready for a day of fishing

It was a tad windy when we headed out this AM, but it was early and it felt pretty nice......Until we arrived at our fishing spot about 90 minutes later-the first clue that it was too cold to fish should have been when I caught the first fish and the poor guy was wearing a parka and earmuffs! BRRRR!

Yes, there was abundant sun, but the wind was so strong it over-powered the warmth of the sun. We spent about 3 hours there and decided to pack up and head home to cook our bratwurst and hot dogs-it was even too cold to stay and build a fire.

Despite the cold, it was great to be able to be outside, together as a family. After all, it was a mere 6 weeks ago that Matt had his accident. Things could be a whole lot different...............
