Neighborhood Dock

The kids have discovered the joys of the neighborhood fishing dock. Hannah and a few of her friends spent last week combing the beach area for old fishing lines, bait and fishing poles. In the process they managed to spill rotten bait all over their clothes, make Huck Finn style fishing poles, and catch a few shrimp.


Hannah spent most of Saturday fishing (with new poles and bait). She (along with John) caught a Flounder yesterday. They threw the Flounder back thinking it wouldn't be good to eat only to find out from a neighbor that Flounder is quite tasty.

Today we spent a few hours down at the dock. The view is beautiful and the kids seem to enjoy themselves.

Ella is afraid to walk on the dock. She does this every time we come to any type of boardwalk/dock.





The Catches of the Day. A crab that we lost at the last minute.


Little "rainbow fish." Both the little girls went crazy over this thing. We threw it back after a few seconds of manhandling.



The coolest Oak tree, perfectly placed near the shore.
