Saturday, we headed down to Mobile to help redeem the gift certificate we got Arthur's mom for Christmas. She wanted to take a "cruise" from the 5 Rivers Delta Center, so Aunt Lynn joined us all for a family trip. We saw lots of birds and 3 alligators as we rode along in our covered pontoon boat. And we got to meet Loretta the Opossum at the center. Then it rained most of the day Sunday, so Turner didn't get to try out his crab pool that Aunt Lynn brought to leave at Grandmamma's. Monday, Turner got to go fishing with his Paw-Paw. Sadly enough, Arthur forgot to grab a camera, so we didn't get any pictures of all the fish Turner caught. It felt like we caught something every time we cast Turner's little "Cars" fishing rod. I know it was somewhere between 10-20 that we caught in the hour or so we were out there. We kept throwing them back until we caught a good size bass. Then we ended up keeping 4 good size ones, brim included, and bringing them home to eat for supper. Turner didn't care so much for the fish after he reeled them in. He was definitely more interested in the worms we were using for bait. He enjoyed seeing the fish get cleaned and really enjoyed eating them, though! Arthur did get a couple of pictures from the river cruise, so we'll get some up here as soon as we can. This coming weekend, we'll experience even more water as we enjoy and sand and sun of the beach. Arthur will be attending the newspaper convention, so Turner and I will be hanging out and enjoying ourselves as much as we can. I'm sure I'll have stories to tell after that trip, too! And hopefully have a few pics to share.......
