Evan and Rachel

Thursday, August 29, 2013

I haven't had a chance to see Evan and Rachel since the beginning of summer, so I was very much looking forward to today.  I got up at 4:30 as I had to be at Paul's by 7:30 to pick them up before he left for work.  We headed to Bobcaygeon and used the drive to catch up on all their vacations and weekend camping and fishing trips.  We started the day with breakfast at the Full Cup Cafe.


Evan told me when I picked him up that he needed to find a job because he wanted to start saving for a boat and motor when he turns 16!  So we stopped at Buckeye Marine to check out small motors.


We then proceeded to Riverside Park to wet a few lines.


Rachel demonstrated her improved casting technique.



Evan wasted little time in landing a nice largemouth.

When we were finished fishing we headed over to Cal and Marcelle's where Evan was very impressed by the truck Cal has been working on for the last 10 years.  It's almost done!


Mark showed up and gave Evan a bunch of remote control boats and motor parts.  Evan was in his glory (so was Mark!).  It was great to see the Rouses again and we had a great visit, but we had to head home because Rachel had her last baseball game of the season.

 

We met Paul & Andrea at Swiss Chalet before heading to the ball park where Rachel put on quite an exhibition of hitting and throwing!



 

Great job Rachie!!!
What a great day!
