Now that's a happy boy!

Six ways you can tell if you have a happy boy...
1.) the boogies running out of his nose
2.)river water dripping from his fingers
3.) fish slime all over the front of his unzipped coat
4.)the mountain dew in the background(and that's as close to a veggie as he got the whole trip)
5.)the obvious sea to shining sea grin plastered on his filthy face
6.)your fish is bigger than your entire right leg

There is a guy in our branch that we affectionately call Bro "D". Bro D took Kade and a friend steelhead fishing on the Salmon river. They had so much fun. Kade was pretty sick with a cold, but he still had a great time. Bro D called me friday morning and asked if they could leave friday after school, so Kade didn't know until he saw Bro D after school, pole in hand. He broke out into a huge grin and a jog.

Thank You Bro D! You just made the best memories for a couple of boys that they will remember for a long time to come.

I'm jealous. I wish that were me holding up one of those lunkers. I think I have a hunch who this Bro D is, what a nice guy to take the boys! Such a neat memory for them.

Wow, that is a big fish. He'll be able to tell big fish tales for long time with that one. :)

Nice fish! My husband would be so jealous! He hasn't got to go fishing this year and is pretty sad about it. So Penny I have a question... do you know of anyone that is looking for a ranch hand for the summer or beyond? Jake and I are having a hard time finding a job and were wondering if you might know of something. Jake is graduating May 15th and we've been hitting dead ends with all of his job applications. He's graduating in Animal Vet Science and has a ton of horse experience but needs more cattle experience. I don't want to bore you with his resume but thought you might know of something. Thanks!
