We have lots of lakes and a river nearby. He is now checking out the different types of boats.

Make sure the boat is big enough for all the quilting necessities.

I love fishing!! Just a fun fact...we have five kids and all but the oldest loves to fish. Out of the younger four we have three teenage boys 13,13,14 and a girl 9. We bought them all poles and Abby just had to have the princess pole and I gave in even tho it's so small but the price was great so what the hay, and bought it. To quote my DH that pink, little, short **** pole is going to disappear! (no he doesn't say that in front of her) That princess pole out fishes everyone poor Abby gets bored because as soon as it's cast she catches a fish! The boys want to hide her pole because of course they are all very competitive so buy the princess pole lol

Are you l,ooking to stay where you are? Do you live on a lake? If your looking to move come and buy the house next door to me. I need a neighbor. And the dock is so much nicer than the one we have. Wish I could afford one like it.

The best thing about fishing is when you can lay back and get a tan!!!

My parents did something like that. Dad said he was buying another boat ( he already had one little one) and mom said thats fine then I'm getting my kind of a boat. She got a Gammil and then ended up with an embrodiery machine as well. She says its her boat. What ever makes you both happy. Congrats on the boat!
