Hi lovelies,
Yesterday afternoon Robbie and I went off to visit some friends.
Robbie had made plans to go fishing with Robert, while I planned to spend some time with his beautiful wife Nelsa. Lucky her name is not Liz or we would all be really confused. 😁
The boys set off to Cooby Dam and for Robbie it was his first time fishing from a boat on a dam. Robert was extemely kind and supplied all the gear, as well as some excellent tuition.
We received a text from them not too long after they left saying that Robbie had caught his first fish, just 5 minutes after they launched the boat. I think our excitement would have been on a par with theirs. We were nearly jumping up and down with happiness that they had caught something.
They apparently had a wonderful time, with both men catching a few yellowbellies each.
Robert also caught an eel tailed catfish, which was something new for both of them.
It was after dark when they returned home, both very satisfied with the expedition, and planning to go again soon.
They only brought the one fish home with them and Robert was very kind and filleted the fish and we have brought them home to cook for dinner tonight. We learnt that yellowbellies are not really
good to eat if they are too big.
Now we beach lovers have never eaten freshwater fish, so we are looking forward to trying it. The suggestion is to just pan fry them in a little butter.
While the men were out hunting and gathering, Nelsa and I had a lovely afternoon sharing a cuppa or two and chatting about our families, our travels, and of course the odd craft subject.
Nelsa was kind enough to share some of the mixed media samples she had been working on recently and has graciously allowed me to share them with you.
Most of them are on 4 x 6 cards and I love the colours she has used.
I am not sure if my favourite is the one above here, or the one below. The one above is "my colours", but the one below reminds me so much of coral, and we all know I am partial to anything ocean related.
Robbie and I both had a wonderful time, and it was a beautiful way to spend an afternoon.
All for today lovelies,
Keep enjoying life.

That is the right weblog for anyone who needs to seek out out about this topic. You realize a lot its nearly onerous to argue with you (not that I actually would need…HaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Nice stuff, simply nice! casino bonus
