This is what I call a weekend!

Saturday was also very fun! Jason and I went fishing in a creek. It was like nothing I'd ever experienced. First of all the creek was deep, I guess I'm used to shallow creeks. We wore old clothes (including tennis shoes!) and waded into the creek. When we got out deep enough we started the fishing. We would fish for a while in one spot and then we walk down the creek a little farther. Unfortunately I didn't catch anything but sticks and leaves, but Jason caught several small-mouth bass, a sun-fish and some others. I did get my exercise in though, because we waded a long way down the creek and then had to walk/wade back (probably about a mile total). The water got up to our necks at points; it was really cool water too. A very interesting experience, indeed. Hopefully I'll catch something next time I go!
Saturday evening Jason and I went out on Herrington Lake to swim and watch fireworks. Apparently the lake puts on a fireworks show every year--WOW. The lake was packed with boats and I can see why. We didn't have the most ideal position on the water for the whole show, but by the end we were in a good position to see most of them. I was in awe of the experience. I can't wait to see it again next year!

Sunday was nice too. Some exciting news from the day...Jason bought his first calf from my dad! We are still deciding on her name, any suggestions?
Too bad weekends only come around once a week!
