Catch of the day

Nolan enjoys fishing, even though he hardly ever catches anything.

He caught a fish the very first time he ever went fishing last year and hasn't caught another one since -- until a couple of weeks ago.

On Tuesdays in Central Park in Schenectady they hold a little "fishing clinic" for kids in the park's small lake. He went on the Tuesday after we got back from our vacation. The men who run it try give some pointers to the kids, but Kris says Nolan insisted he already knew how to fish!

And I guess he was right. He hooked this little sun fish.

He was quite proud of himself. He called me up on the phone as soon as he got home to tell me all about it.

He's been having quite the summer, filled with fun outdoor activities. But school is just around the corner...
