Fun in the sun on Sunday, inland sea

Had to take advantage of the great fall day, was out once again with my wife, daughter and my daughter's friend, got out around 2, and they wanted to try water skiing, so we did some attempted water skiing (both girls got up, although not for long), a little tubing, when they wanted to take a break and play around in the boat, figured it was time for a quick troll. Only got 2 perch, but was only set up for 1/2 hour, no depth finder (left at home on the table, oops). Hooked up, called out to the girls, and she was by my side reeling it in. My daughter said "that's not fair, how come she gets to catch the fish" My response, she jumped up first. As soon as I said that, the other rod popped, so the two best friends both got to pull in a fish at the same time. Wrapped it up with a tub ride back to the dock for the girls.
I will have to admit though, my screen name is "Cas", which is short for casual, a nick name I've had since college as I'm a pretty easy going guy. Well, my daughter tested my patience out there a few times, as only 8 year old kids can do, so my apologies to other boaters out there that probably heard us, how shall I say it nicely? Talking with raised voices to our daughter!
But all in all, a great day, water skiing, tubing, swimming, catching fish, then she gets to eat her catch for dinner. Not bad for the end of September in VT.

Great weather and seas to enjoy the end of summer.
