Lake DeSmet is a beautiful long lake in northern Wyoming. We fish here every time we get out here. This time was no different. We spent several hours with our poles in the water. Afterall, we had $250 invested into our out-of-state licenses.
A mind often wanders, particularly mine, to things like loons, red rocks, and perhaps UFOs. Observe those individual cloud formations in the sky.
Can you spot an "L", an "i", followed by a question mark? I found myself staring in wonder for longer than intended, as I was meant to be concentrating on the tip of my fishing rod.
A man, his wife's palm and a dog on guard. Hank can't figure out what happens to the loons when they disappear beneath the water. He'll stare in the same place, but they come up in a totally different spot. He gets fooled every time.
A little commotion and again my palm.
We caught one and kept it! Steve is demonstrating the size with his hands here. It's my fish! Although, I needed Steve to point out that my pole was wiggling.
I used a favorite herb and regular butter slices as you see in the above pic.
The meal was excellent, especially with the side of Broccoli Salad!
Looking forward to more fishing adventures!
One final, very important note:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RILEY!!
(Today is my son's birthday. :))
