Family Anecdote

          A couple of years back i went to visit my family in Indiana. When we went to ask my cousin if he wanted to go he was as excited as a puppy with a new toy and quickly said yes. The time came for us to leave for Indiana beach and we packed up with enough food to feed to feed an army and enough fishing polls to fish the river dry. After a long 4 hours drive which can be worse then weeding when its through the vast Indiana country side, we arrived at the campground.  The rest of that day and night was spent resting up for the next day which would prove to be quite an interesting day.  The next morning we were up earlier then the birds and were prepared for a wonderful day of bountiful fishing.  After a long time of debating where to go fishing my grandpa set on a spot he thought would be okay.  The actual fishing only lasted for an hour, and speaking of fishing which involves water, my grandpa cusses like a sailor and even worse when provoked to do so.  Now let me provide some play by play for the following event, and Vuurman (my cousins last name) is back building up enough energy to strike like a cobra  with his rod and now the toss........ oh no, what is this, it appears as though a large tree has sprung up out of no where and is on course to intercept this toss, oh my. This cannot end good folks. End good it didn't for my grandpa is not one for removing half of a fishing rod from trees and remember how i mentioned the cursing like a sailor well this happened to be activated as well, he was as mad as a hornet that just got its nest destroyed. With my cousin standing by cowering from my grandpas sight and my grandpa removing the rod from the tree, we learned something, when your fishing make sure your not the one getting caught.
