Family campouts involve family. But unlike The Fuzz and His Sweetie, most of the family have jobs and other responsibilities. That is of course why these things are set up for weekends.
Now it was time for them to leave for home and a new week's activities.
Now it was time for them to leave for home and a new week's activities.
This guy must have been planning an escape from the campground by riding out on one of the cars. He was caught in the act and didn't make it. But every one did get a good look at him. The Fuzz likes the color contrast in his portrait.
The Fuzz had discovered that as a "Senior Citizen" he now qualified for a Lifetime fishing license at a very affordable price. In his youth he had done a good bit of fishing, but it was one of those things that gets dropped as life moves on for us. But now there was no reason not to have a go at it again.
Since they had been at the lake he had slipped off a few times to "feed the fish" as he put it. And those guys had eaten up most of his bait.
So the next day, he and His Sweetie slipped out to get some ice, some worms
And…
"Homemade Ice Cream"
The Fuzz found the truck interesting as well having driven a similar one for 20 years or so. But that is another story for another time.
The ice cream was good and The Fuzz did manage to replenish his supply of fishing worms.
Early in the morning he got up to attempt a photo of the full moon.
This has been kind of a project for Our Fuzz, and with little success it must be admitted.
But he hasn't given up yet.
The moon was out and over the lake.
But as can be seen, sorta out of focus.
So he tried a bunch of different things and finally came up with this one.
But he has no idea how!
So now it was time to feed those little fishes again.
The Fuzz got his worms and fish pole, and took off in the kayak.
It is great for getting into those little places that are hard to reach by foot.
While he was there he got a couple of shots of this little fellow.
Here's a view looking back out toward the lake.
With no more bait it was time to paddle back to the camp for a snack and a swim.
And...
The Fuzz is happy to report that he actually did catch some of those fishes-
8 of 'em!
But he did send them back home.
They were happy - The Fuzz was happy!
A good day.
