Ryan gets his Fish Wish

My son and I were out on the water this weekend in his new dinghy. He has wanted this for a long time. We were working it out as he was to earn half the money and bring home a top notch report card and I would fund half.

We even had called on a few used ones in the recycler for boat and motor for $600 but did not get there in time to see it and buy it.

And we used the rod he won in the Halibut Derby on Sunday to troll around the breakwater at the end of MDR. No luck on fishing. But we did pluck out of the water a bunch of plastic bags. It was another version of 3 men in a tub. Ryan, Thomas and I in a little tiny inflatable boat. We even did a outside loop around the front side of the end breakwater. Gave us a little thrill. Ryan spotted some Porpoise on the outside corner and yelled “Whales.”

Check it out. It was a good weekend for Ryan.

Thomas had a fun Baseball Game on Sat. at 8:30 am.

Now I don't mind not going to Cat Harbor with John R. on his boat.
