A Day of Fishing with Bampa


Dad and Rebecca fishing off the hull (front) of the boat. We spent Sunday of Memorial Weekend on the boat fishing with Bampa and Rebecca out in Galveston Bay. We put in at Galveston Yacht Basin and went out early in the morning. I told Ricky that I hadn't fished with my dad for at least 15 years. It was really neat to reminince about the old days with Emily, I think she got to know a bit about me today. We caught rocks, an eel (Rebecca) and some croaker, nothing to keep, just a sunburn...all of us. YES we used sunscreen, but I guess not enough.


Richard and Bampa taking a break from fishing and swimming(that would be Richard). We pulled the boat up onto a small shore by SeaWolfe Park. The kids thought they hit the motherlode, because there was a beach and they could swim. I guess we need to do this more often.


Emily floating...she has gotten really comfortable in the water. It is funny...she wouldn't get in the water when we were anchored but would get in the water by the park. She said the water was different. Takes after her mother I guess.







This is a picture of the sunrise at about 6 am. It was so beautiful.

That is great that you has such a wonderful day. The thought of going fishing with dad, the boat and the little beach bring back A LOT of memories, even if it was in the river and not the bay. There are a lot from the bay too, though. Hope everything is going smoothly and that everyone is well.

Love ya
