Last weekend, Chris, TJ and I went to Joe Pool Lake to feed the 'duckies and fishies' at the marina. I thought it was going to be this calm little area, but the fish were these crazy, huge nasty carp and they were SUPER agressive!
TJ had a blast feeding the fish and ducks (we went through 2 loaves of bread!) and the weather was great.
Here's Chris!
You can tell where there were people on the side with food - the fish would congregate where the food was being thrown and just pile up on top of each other - coming out of the water and everything with their big nasty mouths!
Such cute pics of father and son playing.........
Here's one of me, but I kind of look out-of-it. Chris was trying to take pictures without me knowing it...
They had a band playing in the restaurant/bar at the Marina - it was a great night!
Just being around boats and lake water reminded me of Dad - that smell of boat gas and lake water is enough to just knock me over with memories of my childhood and Dad. It felt good to remember him and all of the good times on the lakes of Minnesota!

Carp are so nasty. I don't know how all of those Hmong people can catch them and do whatever they do with them.
Those are some scary fish!! The zoo in Omaha has a fish pod liek that where you can feed the fish, but they are Koi fish. Still crazy fish, but prettier than those ugly carp!! Looks like a fun time though!! Allison
These fish freak me out. I had to scroll over your first picture because I just couldn't handle it. Oooo...just got the goosebumps. :) Abby
