Me, Earl, Jeremy & Gary (Carla's boyfriend) up to the island fishing this morning. We landed 4 fish and brought down 3. I caught a big (10 or 12 lbs) and released it. Ruby and Helen went to Corner Brook for some shopping and to visit mom at the hospital. Me, Ruby, Earl & Helen then went to Chris & Dean's for deep fried wings, potatoes & onion rings. Sat around a fire there after chatting. Thanks Chris & Dean - great friends, great meal and a pretty good fire too lol.
