Out for a bit

Surprise Attack Camping Trip!!!

Camping trip with the girlfriend and her family. I'll be out of town starting Thursday July 16th thru Saturday the 18th or Sunday the 19th.

I'll have my cell with me but it may not be attached at the hip the entire time. Hit me up, see what I'm doing...

Harry Potter

A-Fucking-MAZING!

Sorry, I try not to swear on my blog too much...

And anyone who tries to tell me Harry Potter Movies/Books aren't badass hasn't taken the time to watch/read one.

5 second Project

The project was for this site, GreyScaleGorilla.com

The category of the 5 second projects was "Old Video Games".

So I chose Dig Dug....

Enjoy!

Brüno

eh... if you liked Borat, you SHOULD like this... I'm glad I saw it but, like Borat, I'll probably never watch it again.

Although I must say, Sacha Baron Cohen, you are a great actor and a very funny man.

yet another day of fishing

Gretchen, Jessica and I went fishing today and had quite a bit of success... although we didn't keep any. I find it always hardest to keep that first one... after that first one is on the stringer, there's no problem putting more on there. I just always think, "what if I only catch this one and no more that are worth keeping?" Then I have to put that one back or something and it's already been DRAMA-FYED by me putting it on a stringer.... UGH... today I wouldn't have had that problem.

First CRAPPIE of the day... I believe the first fish was a Sunny... maybe this was the first... I forget.

Gretchen's Biggest, and I believe first, Crappie of the day.

My biggest Crappie of the day.

A BIG perch... so I'm told (by Jessica).

A bigger Perch.

Sorry for no Jessica pics. She refused to pose for her first Crappie and wasn't using minnows for the majority of the day.... so she wasn't catching as much...

Chevis

Chevis is the name of my amazing cousin. She's the coolest and has the most unique name. She's the wife of an amazing guy named Dan and the mother of an amazing boy named Daniel.

She's the one on the far right if you haven't guessed.

This post is dedicated to Chevis because she is a self proclaimed 'Closet Reader or Jared's Blog'.

Chevis, Have a Great Day!

Fishing

What I've been up to lately is FISHING. Dan and I have been making frequent trips to random places for "Night Fishing". We usually head out between 8 and 10pm to see if we can't stir up some fish when they can't see. So far we've had only small bites... except for the one that got away... Dan know what I'm talking about.

Here's dan's SMALLEST catch of the night on our most recent trip. She's a beauty...

Recently my dad went out and had a trailer hitch added to his car for pulling the boat around. When that was done, Jessica and I brought the boat to Lake Sarah for a test run of the trailer and to check out the lake.

YESTERDAY Joe and I went fishing... I finally got him to come out on the boat with me. Probably one of the best 4th of July's during the day that I've had in a long time, even though we both left the lake with Sunburn.

We ended up going to Lake Sarah because that's the only lake my dad has been talking about and insisting that we check out. He caught the first crappie of the season... at least for US.

Here's the first one... I was beginning to thing that crappies were a myth.

But then I started catching them too. We had loads of fun.

I even caught a small, Large Mouth Bass.
