Sierra 2000000000
I think this trip started at like 8 or 9pm. I can't remember where we started from but I do remember driving all night and into the morning. We drove up to Lassen Volcanic Park to a lake that had tons of big fish in it. Unfortunately we never caught any. We then headed to the queen lily and did catch some fish.

Halloween Fishing
So Kim came home from the hospital last night. My brother Tim, who came dowm from chico to help out while Kim was in the hospital, left shortly after eating some bagels. He was a huge moral support for me and the kids, dats4sure! Thanks Tim. Thanks everybody.
Anyway after bagels I loaded the kids up in the car and took them fishing at Parkway Lakes.
We brought the Spider-man and Cinderella fishing poles, a bucket, and some diaper wipes.
At first Elisa didn't want to go on the trip because she didn't want to miss trick or treatin. In the end she made it. When we first got their the lady running the cash register, was dressed as a witch and gave the kids some candy. They picked out fishing bobber and then it was time to fish.
When we got to the sure catch pond, there was a European family struggling to learn the english words that are used in fishing. We waited for a bit and then it was our time to catch the fishy. I asked who wanted to fish first and Elisa jumped at the chance.
I think Elisa was suprised at the power of the fish. It kind of spooked her.
When she hooked her first fish, she reeled it to the side of the pond and then asked me to finish bringing it in. After that she was a little shy for about 10 minutes. Mark stood by in shock as the fish jumped and splashed.
After we got the first fish in the bucket both the kids ran up to get a closer look. They jumped about 3 feet when the bugger splashed them with a few shakes of the tail. They got a great laugh out of that.
Mark really was amped to get his turn. The night crawler he had was a long one. In fact he decided it was a Snake and not a worm.When he hooked his first fish he was confused. He didn't expect the fish to pull so hard. It was funny and then frustrating to him that he couldn't just reel the fish in.
At the end of the hour and a half, the kids had caught 5 nice rainbow trout.
