Well, the boys and I decided to brave the Ocean and go fishing for some Rock fish. It was a great time and it was actually the boys idea to make it an occasion every year. Caleb actually had an extensive conversation with the skipper of the boat informing him that we would be back here the same date and time next year.

We left the night before and spent the night at a hotel near Monterey. this is a vacation in and of it's self for the boys, they love staying in hotels!. unfortunately for them, but fortunately for the people in the rooms around us, we had to hit the hay early as we had to be on the boat at 6:30 a.m. We awoke at a little after 5 a.m. and got packed up and got to the dock at 6:15. the boys gathered their poles and we jumped on the boat.

The boys headed straight for the bow and immediately began having a blast as we rode the roller coaster waves. Initially the ocean was calm, until we got outside the bay, then the waves got BIG ,and the boys git a bit freaked out when the ocean would suddenly drop 15-20 feet under the bow.

Caleb Caught the first fish of the day, but William was just a little freaked out by the rocking of the boat and decided that in my arms was the best place to be. Spencer was immediately enthralled by the sport. he loved it.

After a while, I started to feel pretty bad, william and caleb were not doing so well either. they laid down and went to sleep, while I proceeded to lose last nights dinner over the railing....

Spencer Just kept on fishing and watching everyone else puke their guts out, including the Dept. of Fish and Game guy who was on the boat.

Spencer caught our limit, and we returned to the docks. the boys still said they had a great time. and want to go again. That makes it a great trip....
