Update from Birchwood




Greetings from Birchwood! Grandma, Grandpa, and I have been having a great time at the cottage. Today we caught 46 fish on Lake Chetac and went golfing at Tagalong (Grandpa and I tied with scores of 53). We've caught around 90 fish since we got here on Monday. Almost all of them have been crappies. Yesterday was very windy. Grandma and I went out on Little Birch around 11:00am and we needed three (that's right, three) anchors to keep us from being blown into shore. We came in yesterday morning with about 10 crappies. I've been going out on the pier at night casting a spinner bait. Each night I've caught a little largemouth bass and a little Northern. They haven't been anything huge, but they're fun to reel in. Hopefully the good fishing will continue. We're well on our way to catching our limit!

Sounds like a great time. Is the weather nice? It's like summer here.

We are planning to have Taylor's Open House for graduation on Father's Day, June 21. We'll celebrate Taylor & Eric's graduations with the family, probably about 1:00 p.m. I'll be sending out invitations, but wanted to get the date set for everyone.

Hey, leave some fish for the rest of us. I like the matching golf shirts. When I played golf this Tuesday for the second time in the golf league I just joined, a Sheboygan Press photographer showed up and snapped pictures as we were driving. I figured it's good practice for the pressure I'll face at the Van Drunen open.

3 anchors, huh? Were any of them named Nora?
