I am so lucky that Ted has a special love and talent for hunting and fishing. No really I am! If things get too bad you will most likely find us living in the deep woods. Ted is the all american boy scout. We could live quiet happy in a twig and gravel hut, eating meat, grains, berries, mushrooms, and what ever else is ok to eat because Ted knows exactly what is alright to eat. Ted has been teaching the kids all one should know about nature since the day they are born. Daesha knows the names of several trees and flowers. I had to add to the tree knowledge by pointing out a cherry blossom. Ya! I bet your Dad didn't know that one. Just a few days ago I found Ted reading one of his outdoor magazines to Daesha titled, "Scat is were it's at. Who's poo is whose". Very informative... about forest animal poo and how to tell them apart and even knowing what that animal eats by what's in the poo. I was glad that he said we never touch the poo. It could carry disease. We just poke it with a stick. :-S
Anyway, back to Ted being a very manly man and bringing home food for his family...

The fishing hole in Spanish Fork
We started catching fish like crazy. We had a fish nearly every cast! Daesha became tired after the 20th fish. Daesha pretending to eat a worm. Yuck!
This small mouth bass had Ted out in the water. He was a fighter! Almost too big to keep. But with the vote of other fishermen around us we decided not to throw it back.
All our fish! A total of 31 white bass, and 3 small mouth bass.

I like the one of Keegan and Ted in the water the best, love the pictures, can't wait to get a taste!
so...now how do you turn them into the neatly plastic-wrapped fish from the grocery store with no eyes or bones or innards? I fear I will starve to death if we have to live in the woods :)
WOW! You guys got quite the take!
How COOL is that, Chandra! I was just thinking recently how lame it was that we can all identify the brands and logos of a ton of companies but yet have a hard time differentiating between types of trees and berries and animals. SUCH a cool survival skill, really! :)
WOW... Ted is awesome. I should have him take my boys fishing so they can actually catch something. How fun. I'm so excited that you're going to be working with us all. Are you crazy?
