  1. The 13th year anniversary gift

    After asking off and on for many years I finally got my wife to agree to go fishing with me. It was our anniversary weekend (13 years) when we headed out to Atwood lake together. We didn't catch much, a couple of bluegill and small crappie but we had a lot of fun.
