The kids have been asking me to take them fishing a bunch this year. I ended up buying some gear and a fishing license (for Gavin... the other kids don't need one yet) and tried my best to teach them something I never really had an interest in learning. I soon figured out that I didn't really know how to catch fish around here. I didn't think there was really much to it other than a bobber, hook, bait, and lots of patience. I asked a friend of mine from church to take us to his his favorite fishing hole this morning and teach us how to fish. Wow, we learned a lot and there were several things we were doing wrong which certainly hindered our success. We caught four trout in the three hours we were out there. He taught us how to clean them, and then we cooked them up tonight for dinner.
Then later after lunch, we decided to do a hike we heard about called Red Mountain Trail. It is basically a volcano that erupted out the side of the mountain (a long time ago) which allows us to see and walk through some really unique formations. Here's some pictures:
