Vacation

We are back from vacation! We did a lot of fishing, camping, hanging with family, and even relaxing.  We went up north to Jason's family trailer that is about 2 hours north of where they live.  We went in stayed there for three days.  It was great to go away from everything.  We didn't have much cell service or Internet.  We did A LOT of fishing. It was fun.  I caught for the first a Smallmouth bass, that was fun.  That was on the list of things to do while we were in Wisconsin. 

Then we can back and hung out with his parents on Wednesday and chilled to get away from the mosquitoes. Then went fishing with his dad on Thursday to Lake Wisota we catch some Walleye, again another thing that was on the list of things that I wanted to do while we were there.  He was a little guy. 

We then went to the National Eagle Center in Minnesota, by the Mississippi River.  I was able to take my picture with a real eagle up close.  That was a neat day! I love eagles and to was great to learn more about them. Some facts about Bold Eagles: they live up to 25 years in the wild. They eat mostly fish, they can also eat: rabbit, squarrrel, rat, quail and anything else they see that they would like to eat. They can see as far as we can read a newspaper from 100 yardrs away. They are very clean birds, they can spray their poop 6 feet away. Their wing span is about 5-6 feet.  The females weigh about 10 to 12 pounds and males weigh 8 to 10 pounds. One claw has the strength of 400 pounds.

This is a Golden Eagle

On the way hom from the Eagle center we went to find some cheese.  We went to this place it was so good!

Then Saturday we went to four lakes that I have never been to, which was great we were the first ones on the lake and we found a really nice spot and we caught 12 fish or so which is great considering we have never been to this lake. There was a very small channel to get to the other lakes. There was lots of lilly pads with flowers that were blooming.  It was a fun day!

We found this in the water, we are not sure how or when it got there but REALLY! How dangerous is this?
