Busy the past few weeks

Right after our trip to Alberta, Melanie and I headed to San Francisco for the annual dental meeting. Melanie LOVES to spend time in SF and we usually have some great meals while we are there. We ate at 2 Michael Mina restaurants and they were both excellent. We took my mom out for dinner on our last night and ate at Lark Creek Cafe in San Francisco Center. Great meal there too.

It is suppose to be the PEAK of the salmon season but because of low water and high temps, the fish are still not here. Benson and Victor joined me Friday for some salmon fishing and we only landed 1 fish. Usually it’s limit fishing from mid August to the end of Sept. The parking lot was near empty!

Our bass pond is loaded with short fat fish right now. They are healthy and eating well. The pond is finally getting clearer but when it rains (I hope so!) it will cloudy up again.

Yesterday we had my annual crawdad boil. Benson and Victor drove down from Anderson and Kenny and Amanda drove up from Monterey. Papa John and Uncle Jon also made it. The kids love to get the crawdad processed and cooked. They looked over 40 pounds of crawdads to discard all the dead ones. Emma especially likes the job! Great feast with really nice evening weather so we could eat on the patio. What a great group of friends and in-laws!
