A Child's Perspective on Ice Fishing...

We took the "scenic route" home from the funeral on Sunday afternoon. At Saskatchewan Landing we were surprised to see several groups of fishermen out on the ice with their gear. Since John thought the kids would enjoy seeing this, he pulled over to the shoulder of the road so they could have a better look.

As he pointed out the people and the vehicles on the ice below us, Isobel looked very surprised and then gave her take on it all.

It only took two words -- "That's NUTS!"

John told her, "That's right Isobel. It IS nuts!"

I couldn't have agreed more and thought to myself that I hoped none of the folk would fall through the ice that Sunday afternoon - a warm and sunny day in March.
