A drive up to Mt. Hood proved to be a day full of wonder for these two kids!
At first there wasn't a plan to visit the snow capped mountain top but who could resist the new fallen snow? Mt. Hood has fresh snow fall each month of the year, but not always at this level. It was a treat we hadn't anticipated. :)
These two cousins take playing seriously and quickly got to throwing snow balls!
Next stop: Timothy Lake and fishing!
Fishing poles in hand we begin the walk to start fishing with Papa.
A small family of Canada geese paddled by as we got closer to the fishing dock. If you look close you'll see the goslings by their mama.
We get to the dock and start the fishing!
Did they catch any fish? We'll, yes and no.
A beautiful trout was hooked and brought in. Wouldn't you know that fish wiggled loose and jumped back in the lake?!
The rainbow trout is right under the chair....and that was a lucky picture because in the next second it was gone!
Papa did a lot of repair and replace of worms, line and sinkers! Good thing he was in charge because I wouldn't have a clue how to do all that. We are all learning about fishing from him!
Many treasures on the lakes edge were found to add to the fishing gear!
A day to be remembered!
