Well Happy Monday if There is Such a Thing…
Well Happy Monday if there is such a thing… Camping went great this weekend; the weather cooperated just like we thought it would. My dad, Vance and I went fishing a lot this weekend and did extremely well every time we put our poles in the water. We were trolling with Rapalas and just knocked the crap out of the rainbows. The trout we caught were huge. I’m talking four to five pounds, every one of them. We threw a lot of them back just because we didn’t need all of them and especially since we could pretty much catch them on demand. My dad and I probably tied for the most fish caught this weekend, and Vance definitely brought up the rear. One thing that didn’t go well this weekend were the bugs. They weren’t at our campground at all, but if you got out on the lake, you were swarmed. They were huge gnat bugs, I’m not talking about a few bugs, I’m talking thousands and thousands of these gnats. So we really had to fight them off while we were fishing, which is never any fun at all. At least they weren’t mosquitoes because we just would have been bitten into one big lump after fishing. The lake is really down right now because they’re letting water out of the dam. There are a couple of little islands that have popped up due to the drop of water, so if you’re out with your boat you better be looking around for new islands popping up. The water temperature hasn’t come up enough for any rational person to be swimming in the lake, but I saw a couple of crazy people swimming at Senior Beach. The average water temperature was probably fifty degrees, and the warmest I saw it was probably fifty-two degrees, which by any normal person is way, way, way too cold to be doing any recreation in the water. Well I have started to work out this week: I signed up at Fuel Fitness, and I think I will enjoy it. The one thing I really didn’t like about Fuel is that their whole gym is in one large room, which I guess maybe I haven’t been to a lot of gyms in my day, but to me I really don’t like to lift with everyone in one big room. But they have really nice equipment so I should be just fine to lift this summer. My goal is to re-break my squat record when I come in during the fall. I want to set the squat record so high that it will be really hard to break. Well everyone have a great week. I’ll check back in later this week!
