Fishing on a Friday

Last night a couple of my friends and I went fishing up to a place called scofield resivoir. I have been fishing a lot the past two weeks and come to find out I am not that great of a fisherman. I say this because I have yet to actually catch a fish. I did get a nasty snag last night that caused the top half of my pole to come detatched from the bottom half and go flying into the water. Luckily Lori was able to go into the water and fish it out with the other half. What a woman! Although I have not had mush luck with the fish, I am finding the sport to be rather relaxing though and have been having a lot of fun spending time in the local canyons with my friends. So far we have only really done shore fishing but we have managed to find a fishing boat and are going to try taking that out next week. Hopfully the fish will be a little more kind to me if I am actually out there on the water. If any of you have been thinking about fishing I would recommend getting online and getting a fishing license. ($26 for a year) You can get started in the sport for really cheap, and it is a nice way to relax and enjoy good old Mother Nature.

SoftBall, Leave it to the Ladies

So I have been playing on a co-ed softball team for the past couple of weeks. Things have not been going real well for us. Softball and baseball are really competive here in Spanish Fork and the team that we put together is just a few of my friends from high school and their wives, so needless to say we have not been real competative these last two games. We lost tonight 17 to 2. Every now and again we have great things happen and it gives me a little hope, but then we make like 15 errors in a row and all of the sudden we are down by ten runs. It's not that I think that we always need to win but I would like to actually not lose by the ten run rule. Hopfully next week things will be a little bit better, but as for now I just say leave the softball playing to the girls.

New Car for Me

So a couple of weeks ago I bought a new car. I guess it is one of those not really new, but new to me deals. I travel a lot to Salt Lake City and the gas mileage in my truck was just killing me. I bought a 2002 VW Jetta. I am really liking it. It is black and has the turbo engine in it. I have been driving it for a couple of weeks now and can believe the difference that it makes in gas. I'll have to take a picture of it and post it, but it might be a good idea for me to wash it first. Between the new car and the scooter I am able to save a lot of money on gas. It will be great when I can get them paid off. I got the car at Jimmies Love Bug in Provo and would recommend them to anyone. It is nice to have a sun roof again and be able to have that nice summer night air blowing through my hair.
