A Day On The Water July 23, 2008

Below is a picture of Sugar Barge Marina and restaurant. We had dinner at the restaurant last night and it was slow service but good food. Evidently they had a huge 50's bash blow out party this last weekend and they were low on supplies but we still had a good time.

Today was spent on the water. Ed and I enjoyed a boat ride with our friend George and cruised through the different channels on the river. It was a beautiful day on the water.

There are other critters on the river beside the fish that are avoiding the fish line and bait. Below is a picture of a raccoon peeking out from the reeds. Another picture of a crane sitting on one of the pole.

The guys in our group have been out fishing for three days and they have done very well. One of the couples has their two granddaughters here for the week also. Cute little gals 8 years old and 9 years old. They went out fishing with their PaPa this afternoon and caught the largest fish so far, put our fella's to shame.

Tonight we had a great potluck dinner. One of the couples bought all the steaks and cooked them to perfection, along with spaghetti, and the rest of us brought salads, side dishes and dessert. We have so many leftovers we can have another pot luck tomorrow night.

Another great day on the Delta.... until tomorrow
