Successful Fishing


Jack, Kyle, and I went out on a charter boat for a morning fishing expedition. It was his first adventure on the ocean and he did very well. The ocean was flat so no one got sea sick and Jack quickly got his sea legs under him in the gentle swells. We all entered the on board contest for the biggest rock cod but we came in third place. Jack did catch the most fish of anyone and did a fine job of reeling them in, one after another, and once two at one time.

Next year if we get a flat day on the ocean Andy and Josh will have to go with us.

A New Edition to the Branscomb Road House



The boys started climbing in the tree in front of the house so it seemed natural to enhance their experience by adding a few boards and some screws. Andy calls it his "office", but it is shared equally by the grandsons. We will add to it in the years ahead, maybe a fire pole or a plastic slide... It will grow in future as the boys grow too.
