Loc: Finger Lakes NY
We had a great time at our family get together in Wisconsin. The house we rented was on a private lake with a nice sandy beach, kayaks, canoe, paddle boat - it was a perfect spot. Liam and my granddaughter Emmi caught a mess of crappie and learned to filet and cook them, thanks to the property caretaker. Yum! Even though they only see each other once a year, Liam and Emmi are thick as thieves and spent every minute together, most of it fishing. My little three year old grandson Turner caught his very first fish, and so did my sister in law! Both were super excited and hilarious. Two more family members hooked for life. Wish we all lived closer to each other, but we’re close in heart and mind, and we made some good memories while we were together. I’ll be smiling over this for a long time.
Granddaughter Emmi, fishing in her pjs 😁

Betts... Looks like a great setup, no bailing rain out of the watercraft, struggling to flip them over, etc. Sweet!
Smart move to have Turner wearing a PFD even just on the dock. Children are precious.
Glad ya had some nice fishin' and family time. Love the pix of happy kids. I've got a big smile on my face just seeing you guys so happy. I visited Wisconsin once in February, and that was really something, to get through all that ice to fish. Beautiful country though, but if I ever go back it sure won't be in the winter again, Southern New England with it's milder cold season, is plenty for me.

Looks like everyone had a good time. Getting together is always fun, even if you get skunked like we did the past weekend.
Family vacations are the best! I love the smiles.
