For some reason I once again drew a card for Gene's boat. Vic pulled me off to the side and asked if I would trade boats for the day so he could fish with his special cousin Gene. Of course I said yes, I know they have a "special" bond.




    Why later that night Vic & Gene beat Pat & Brad at 10's, it is like they spent the day mastering their signals to each other. Around the fire that night Nick made us all very happy when he agreed to be silent for 5 whole minutes. Whew, it was tough on him…We also learned that Andy & Tequila are not a good combination. Pat was offering shots to everyone as they got off their boats, and Andy was happy to knock a few back. It wasn't long after that Andy was sitting on Pat's knee! I heard that tequila brings out a person's natural personality… Pat got so nervous he asked Geo to hold his hand so Andy would realize he was spoken for.

Another fine meal as it was Steak night, with all the trimmings. I never come home from these trips without gaining a few pounds, but it is worth every ounce. And to top the evening off, the Oilers won in overtime!
