Windriver dock under snow.
Tyler catches the first and the largest fish for the day.
Daddy catches his first fish for the day.
Noah even reeled in a fish.
Momma caught a few before this but had to show the one that flopped around in the snowbank for a while.
The two fishermen of the day. We limited out but it was Tyler and Jennifer that caught the most. In Wyoming the childrens fish count toward the adults creel limit. Our creel limit on trout is 6 per licensed adult.
This would be Tylers largest fish. Little over 13 1/2 inch Rainbow Trout pulled out of Windriver lake on our first day fishing for the week.

First use of the cleaning station.
Another angle of the cleaning station with fish in clean water side for show. We ended up using the other side to cut fish and clean out guts, then put them in the clean water side to rinse just before putting them in a bag to later be cooked and eaten.
Another picture to show the size of Tylers fish and show of cleaning station.
Our second project for the day was to create some steps to get up into the camper. The camper steps would not fold out corectly to fit on the deck and our little black step was just that, too small. I measured from the deck to the the stepout on the camper, then divided by three to give me the height of the two steps. We had left some nails there from the previous bi-annual reunion and put the steps together.
First day in Dubois on mountain land looking at the deck.

Grandpa was off for a week and wanted to see his grandkids. We had swiming lessons early in the evening then we joined the family for a picnic supper in the park north of Loveland lake. KFC was the meal of choice for the evening with a pleasurable browny cake desert made by my lovely wife. The boys then enjoyed a couple of rides on the Buckhorn Northern Narrow Gauge Railway Train.
The train is made up of an engine (powered by a small car motor), three rail cars, and a caboose. It is operated by the local Loveland Lions Club, and costs less than a dollar per rider. Enjoyed by many on this short 3 ~ 5 minute ride it is a summer favorite.
