Even though this was a family vacation, us girls didn't really get to see the boys much, why you ask?
Because they were fishing!!!
To be honest, my Uncle Ed was a little concerned about going fishing with some guy from So Cal. He told me that he worried about having to show/teach him how to "really" fish. Well, after the 1st afternoon of fishing together, my uncle said to me,
"I think I found someone who likes to fish as much as me AND he actually knows what he's doing - he's pretty good!" haha
The 1st fishing day was at their neighbors house, they have a bass pond right on their property. Deven told me that it was the coolest thing, since it felt like he was fishing in the swamps of Louisiana (not that he's ever been to "the swamps" before - lol)
BASS POND
They also went down to the creek, however back east you would pronounce it "crik", yes, like I have a crik in my neck... haha.
THE CRIK
"Supposedly" this is was a catfish that they caught....
no picture, no proof :)

When they weren't fishing they were shooting guns. Ed showed Deven how to shot a variety of gun and yes, I even participated. It was a little intimidating, but also fun.
TARGET PRACTICE - day 1
If you look closely, you can see the gold shell casing flying out of the gun - pretty cool!
TARGET PRACTICE - day 2

The part that I really enjoyed, was going hiking. It's amazing how beautiful nature is. I think the boys were getting a little annoyed becuase every time they turned around I was WAY behind them... what did they expect, I had to stop to take pictures! :)

(right after taking this picture I slipped on a rock and almost broke my camera - I was then reminded the rest of the trip about what a klutz I am!)
