The Cabin

Russ, Tara, and I went to the cabin (in Stanley Idaho) this weekend. On Saturday we went fishing on the Salmon river and also in some ponds up Yankee Fork. We had a really good time. We all caught a bunch of little fish but Russ and Tara both "caught" big Steelheads. I say "caught" because they did not catch them the normal way, like when the fish bites the lure way. Tara snagged her fish by the fin and Russ caught his in a net. But catching is catching right? Later we went to eat burgers at a restaurant in Stanley that was less than impressive, the food was alright but they tried to poison Tara. (They gave her expired mayo for her burger, you'll have to visit her blog for the full story.) Anyway, needless to say, we a had a fun relaxing weekend at the cabin and we hope that Tara is alright. Here are some pictures from our trip...

It looks like you all had a great time! Noelle you should ask Russ about his questionable fishing habits just below the fish hatchery while he was in high school.
