So, the boys went halibut fishing, but it was too windy. There were four foot swells, so they couldn't get to the spot they wanted to. Hence, there were no halibut brought home. The did, however, catch a shark and some more salmon. They also pulled up the shrimp pots and brought home a handful of shrimp.

Of course it wasn't all work. Uncle Huck took them to a beautiful place where they got out and swam and hiked around. They really enjoyed the trip.

There is a submarine testing site, and the boys saw a submarine out there. It was fun because my dad was a submariner.

I can't wait to eat some of the fish that they have caught. So far, we have vacuum sealed the fish, and now smoked the fish. Oh, Huck did blacken a few little pieces in a fry pan. I have three words to say about it... DE-LI-CIOUS! (Yes, I know it is really only one word, I just wanted to emphasize it).
