Ok so I actually caught a fish yesterday! It was slightly larger than Denis' fish that he caught the other night. Chad is pictured holding my fish because I do not touch fish that I'm not about to cook...
So I'm fishin' along and look down in the water and there's this little snake sittin in the water. Chad came and looked at it and said it looked like a water moccasin judging by the pattern of its skin and the fact that it was staying under water. So Chad tried to crush the snake's head but it was under water and in the mud so it kept just sinking in the mud instead of getting crushed and then it swam away. But later, I was further down the river fishing near some tree limbs and looked over and saw that I had a new fishing buddy. This big ole snake that is photographed below. He didn't seem like he wanted any trouble so we decided to leave him alone and maybe start packing up our things to head home.
Yet, Mother Nature was not through with us. We get our stuff packed up and then this huge creature comes at us! Was it Bigfoot?!

No, it was a giant beaver! Ok, not a real beaver. But it was our friend Ben Mitchell dressed up like a beaver.
I don't know what that kid was doing, but he apparently likes to just dress up like a beaver and wander around the forest. Whatever floats your boat! Then like two children who had just spotted Chuck E. Cheese, Ashley and Michael insisted on getting their pictures made with Ben the Beaver.

Everyday is an adventure if you just allow it to be.
