Popster Heads South

Dad came to visit for the weekend and we had a great time. We twisted his arm into buying a salmon tag so we could take him out fishing on what was supposed to be a really good day, but instead ended up being the slowest fishing of the week in the worst weather. Oops!

Dad got in around 11:30pm Friday night - so we said "no problem - please be at our house to leave for fishing at 4:15am" Who needs sleep, right?

Anchored up with the sky just beginning to lighten. 

We had a brief window of clear skies with a beautiful view of Mt. Hood as we headed upstream to our fishing spot. 

Thor- always on the lookout for other boats catching fish!

Dan - huddled and chilly in Thors camo coat - I don't think he understood what we meant when we said to dress warm for the boat. it's a different kind of cold just sitting there!

Dad - putting on a brave face despite the chilly temps (40's), pouring rain, and downstream winds. 


Overall it was a fun day though - and we hooked up with William afterwards to get some phó for lunch. Tasty!

Sunday William and I got up and went for a run - and then we all headed out to brunch at Tabor Tavern. The afternoon brought beers on the Apex patio - it was a leisurely and very relaxed day!
