Fishing in Birchwood: This past weekend, July 18-20, Matt and Ben were in Birchwood, WI fishing again. Matt also was after that hybrid fish that he caught 2 weeks prior as he thought it was actually a World Record Rock Bass, but after a few people looked at it and said it was probably either a Large or Smallmouth Bass, all bets were off. They did do well and caught some dandies, so they ended up having a lucky fishing weekend.
Weekend with the Girls: While Matt was fishing, I spent last Friday day with Melissa Johansen, a friend from my SuperValu days. We took the dinghy all the way to Prescott only for it to run out of gas on the way back. Luckily, some nice folks with a big boat passing by stopped and towed us into the gas station. It literally would've taken us HOURS to get back if it weren't for helpful tow. Then our friend Kelly Williams met us out on the boat and we went to the Catfish Saloon and ended up drinking and chatting until the wee hours of the night.
On Saturday, Liz picked me up and we headed to Redwing for a night. We stayed in the posh St. James Hotel, got hour-long massages (Happy Belated Birthday Liz!), shopped, ate and drank. This drinking is becoming a habit of ours in Minnesota... yikes! Beautiful little town and wonderful hotel located right on the Mississippi River.

HA! Glad to hear I'm not the only one that has run out of gas out there. We started paddling but within about 3 minutes someone came to our rescue - thank goodness.
We miss you too!!! Can't wait to see your new backyard! Send pictures via email.
