I caught my very first Chum! Actually, caught 4 or 5 of em. The fight that they give you before reeling them into shore is absolutely amazing. And then even when you have them on shore, they will still fight! The thrashing and smacking around. And they have these massive fangs as teeth that you have to watch out for cause they will try and bite you. The only pic I have of me with one was captured during a thrash, turned out kind of cool tho! One of the fights I was having with one went on for about 25 mins. I lost him so I didn't even get to see how big he was!! My arms and hands and legs felt like jelly afterward. Ryan and I brought our friend Mark along for the day of fishing. We went out to Stave river in Mission. It was a beautiful day and so much fun hanging out with the boys. I can't wait to go again. Fall fishing is so cool.
Shadow and I went for a walk yesterday. Lately it's been me and my mom and Shadow every day but today she couldn't make it. So Shadow and I walked for over an hour. Just around Cloverdale. There was something about yesterday. The sun had just came out and was shining on all the leaves and trees. With the colors of fall. Especially from the storm from the previous day, tree limbs and leaves were everywhere! It was a beautiful day. I remember thinking to myself, we live in such a beautiful place. We are so lucky. I feel bad for all the people that go through their day to day and never stop to 'smell the roses'. They're missing out.
I'm still going strong with Yoga. And I still love it. I'm starting to feel my body become stronger and I'm able to do certain moves that I couldn't when I first started. I'm going to have to take another break from it soon though. Because I need to get my tattoo touched up along with get the other two tattoo's that I want. I'm so excited for them. Woo!
Other than that life is pretty much the same. Tonight I'm going out with the girls to Gabby's. SO. PUMPED. I love dancing and I love dancing to country music. Hopefully it's a good time!
Then, this weekend Ryan and I hope to go fishing again and I might be going with my mom and dad to Steveston on Saturday. I haven't been there with them in forever and I'm actually looking forward to it. It's been hard for me to go there ever since my aunt passed away as most of my memories with her are there. But it's getting easier now. Then Christina and I may have a training session this Sunday and afterward we plan to have lunch and maybe get our ears pierced!
Oh! Forgot to mention, I'm reading this book that was suggested to me by my friend, Brittany. It's called 'Wild' but Cheryl Strayed. I'm not finished it yet, but I already know I love it. It's my kinda book and story. If you haven't heard of it and need a new read, give it a try. It's a little hard to get through in the beginning. And by hard I mean, rip your heart out of your chest, smash with a hammer and then pour some salt on there. BUT, it starts to lift you back up again slowly. So good, I can't wait to see how it ends. And, the book is just full of amazing quotes.
Some other pictures from these past few days...
