Memday trip to the cabin.

From last weekend - the boys trip to the U.P.
Yes - its a late recap post from last weekend.
But at least its being posted in the same month.


The seven year old is convinced he knows how to fly cast like a pro and can catch as many bluegs as he wants to prove it to me.

Fish & Fish Art

The fish hunters headed out onto Big Shag lake yesterday.


We had some success acquiring subjects for artwork and consumption.
We used the hand ground ink, Japanese brushes and rice paper. Ink was applied.

Paper applied.

Prints were pulled.

Jonah printed his fish, too.


Jonah printed three colors of fish on top of each other. Leah made a print with different colors of fish making a school.

After that the fish were filetted.

And eaten for a late afternoon snack.
