Took the Sylvan up to Lock 7 today to do some fishing.  Why is it when the weather says it is going to be good you should never trust it?  Well about an hour after getting there a Thunderstorm came in.  We were too far away from the Marina to get back before it started, so we rode it out.  It wasn’t that bad, as the storm wasn’t right over us, but a little to the south *thankfully*.  Bill and the kids did some fishing.  Victoria had a fish on her line, but the line broke and the fish got away.  She wanted that fish for dinner and was very upset that it didn’t cooperate with her.  We took a little detour to the three islands right at the Lock 7 falls.  The kids had a great time playing in the water there.  It is so pretty there.  I know I should have taken pictures, but I was having so much fun watching the kids, Bill and Midnight play that I didn’t think of it.  Midnight is getting so brave.  She jumped out of the boat herself today.  She was having so much fun going in and out of the water by herself.  We got back just in time to miss the BIG thunderstorm that was coming in.  What a great day with the family.
