Goin' Fishin' - Rock Creek Lake, Mammoth Lakes, California USA

 My daughter is succumbing to the urge to give it a try!
 
 
 
 
 
 wOw!  Look at her form!
 
 
 
 
 
 Chase, our 6 year old grandson, teaches us everything we ever want to know about fish...and more!
 
 
 Great cast Chase!
 
 
 The family who fishes together stays together!
 
 
 "Wait for me, Daddy"!
 
 
 
 
 
 She keeps trying but catches NOTHING!
 
 
 I'm sticking to taking photos.
 
 
Love this place!

On the Trail - Rock Creek Lake, Mammoth Lakes, California USA

 Little Noah and I spotted these great 'boats' while hiking on the trail above Rock Creek Lake.
 
 
 Love the yellow against the blue water!
 
 
 
 
 
 This is my little hiking companion...Little Noah!
 
 
 He's on the lookout for lizards in the bushes.
 
 
 I'm on the lookout for scenes to photograph!
 
 



 
 
 
 Loved this tree!
 
 



 ...and, this tree too!

Noah doesn't need a fishing pole to have fun...just a good rock or two!
 
 
 or a great stick will do!
 
 



 I love to people watch!
 
 
 Bert thinks there just might be a fish out there...
 
 
 Hi Daddy!


 Chase has his own ideas about where those fish might be.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 I'll just ignore it for awhile...
 
 
 ...not working either!
patience, my boy!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Noah loves this 'beach'!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 ...think I'll dunk my head!
 


 
 
 
5+5 = 10 
 
 
 
 
 
 5+4 = 9
 
 
 5+3 = 8
 
 
This daddy paddled all over the lake with the little guy.
The mommy must have been really happy to have time to herself! 
 
 
 Bert is still waiting for that one special fish to come along.
 
 
 Choo Choo in the sand!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Still at it!
