Go Fish!

Go Fish is a card game, but that's just a bore...

To fish in the ocean is all that and more.

More fun than a fistful of cards that might match

is hooking and posing with your favorite catch.

Some fishergirls chill and enjoy the sea air

while fisherbirds patiently stalk fishy fare.

But one thing's for sure; at the end of the day

a fish in the hand is worth two in the bay!

Kids (and big kids) love to fish, don't they? I remember loving to do it as a kid. Sadly, I've moved on - I don't like to actually catch them... But being out on the ocean in a boat on a beautiful day? Sign me up every time!

looks like you guys had an awesome time. It is kind of hard to ruin a Newport vacation, isn't it?

About your picture question..photoshop helps a lot too! Oh and also shooting in Manual mode.

I've never fished in the ocean before and that looks like so much fun. I agree...fish in the boat is way more fun then fish in the bay! Hmmmm...fresh fish.

I love how you recap life experience in perfect rhyme and meter. Your poetry tells the best stories.

EG CameraGirl said...

It so much cooler to be out on the water with a rod than sitting around a deck of cards. :)

CB said...

I think Pelican's are the coolest looking birds! Fishing in the ocean is fun - I have never done it in a boat just off a pier.

Cute kids!!

Caroline said...

So cute, Sue! I love fishing. It's been a long time since I've gone but it sure is a good time!

Amy said...

Fishing in the sea? I know this is weird but that thought has never entered my mind. I guess even my mind is land locked. What a fun experience! And I bet the fish tasted amazing.
