Well, I know it's been awhile since my last post, but I have been busy!
I continue to expand my video recording hardware. For those of you who don't know, one of my many hobbies is now videography. So I have been consistently getting the proper equipment necessary to make quality video. Eventually, I want to make DVD's and try to sell them. Most of the stuff will probably be on topics like outdoors etc. Since I have a lot of experience with the Boy Scouts. I will probably also do some things on self protection and the like with Darren along with some other misc stuff. Anyway, I had the camera and stuff out the other day when Dad had Rilee, Mason and Saige out in the back after a day of fishing in the pond.
Being curious boys from 5 to 9 Grandpa was going to show them how to gut, scale and cook a fish on charcoal instead of their typical fillet. So he was showing them everything from how to gut and scale the fish to how to make the fire with charcoal and how to improvise a grill top on the ground. They were all having a great time and they actually listen to Grandpa better than I have heard them listen to their parents! Amazing, the power of Grandpa's!
So, I was having fun with my video equipment and also having fun watching the kids have fun and it came time to eat the fish. Rilee hasn't ever liked fish, but to my surprise he actually tried it. Then to my utter amazement, Mason even tried it. Rilee still didn't like it and after holding it in his mouth for a couple of minutes asked if he could spit it out, almost simultaneously Mason said something and I looked over at him as he threw up! (No, I didn't have the tape rolling at the time!)
Saige said it was ok, but not great, but "I learned my lesson last night." I guess he didn't finish his dinner and Bryan made him sit at the table to finish his food for "three whole hours", which he still didn't finish. "When I got up in the morning my Dad made me eat it cold for breakfast."
So I don't know if Saige really liked it or if he just didn't want cold fish for breakfast the next day! LOL
They all had a lot of fun, but if I had to guess I would say that Grandpa had the most fun. (and the most fish!)

Welcome back!
I can honestly say that with ALL the fish I've cleaned and cooked, I've NEVER had it grilled. Sounds interesting. Even when we went to Boundry Waters for that week long camping trip, we hauled a frying pan and tons of oil in with us. Sounds like they had a good time. Poor Saige. I'm grateful growing up that we always had dogs around or I'd have been sitting at that table for hours too sometimes. :0)
Your alive! Welcome back! I would like to have another fish fry soon! I don't think that I have had it grilled though!
Yes Alive and still able to type. I may even try to post again on the weekend. But don't put any money on it!
It's Wednesday.....
And the money goes back into my pocket! :P
