Fishing with my son Stephen
The day is August 8, 2009 and I’m late adding this memorable day to my web site. First, my son Stephen is not a dedicated fisherman like his old man but, occasionally, we will go out together just to be together. This is a blessing, enjoying the outdoors with your son and talking of thing like: do you remember…, what do you think about…, have you heard from…, I’m worried about…, and, among other subjects, “I want to go back to school.” This is wonderful news to me and my wife of 52 years, Patty. That brightened up my day and we discussed his future while fishing, to almost no avail, fish wise. The fish, a couple of small bass and crappie just did not want to cooperate but we didn’t care. We had a great day just being together.
Stephen has passed all his entrance exams and his former credits were all transferable. He has entered school again and has already begun his classes.
That was one of the best fishing days of my life.
