The Big Kahuna

Doug returned from the Alaska fishing trip with Uncle Glen. He had a really great time. He said Alaska is so beautiful, it’s like the whole state is one big National Park. He loved the fishing and just look at the size of this fish, 240 pounds. The Captain of the boat kept telling him to get the rod out of the rod holder and Doug kept saying he was trying! After the fish was landed the Captain just laughed at himself for giving Doug the business about getting the rod out of the holder. Glen and Doug went for an airplane ride on Sunday (after going to church at the Seward, Alaska branch) and saw more beautiful mountains, glaciers, bears (!) and ice bergs! What a trip, our thanks to Glen for inviting Doug. We are all learning to like fish at our house – if you have any good recipes please send them along. Our love to all.
