You can take the city boy out of the city.....

Escaped the city for a quick 18 hours, and ran out to Dan's new lake pad for the night....
took young Dan for the short country experience.

He learned......
-how to avoid Amish buggies while driving the backroads...
-what the word "darned" means....
-how important it is to get beers for your Uncles QUICKLY!
-how to launch a Chinese Sky Lantern and not burn down his Uncle's house.....
-how many more stars there are in Indiana than in Illinois....
-that a neighbor's cat fighting with a wild animal at midnight, when you can't see crap 10 feet past the campfire, can be a scary thing.....
-that shorts don't cut it when the nighttime lows get down to the upper 40's.....
no matter how big your fire is.

Nice place on a quiet and clear lake in Northeastern, IN.....


Uncle Dan's Big Barn of Fun!.....comes with a bird clock....an awesome air hockey table...and maybe a skunk.
Dan "squared"......feeding spiders to the bass.

Dan and I learned........ that soybeans really don't taste that great raw!?


One flat, unlucky frog......but it did taste better than a raw soybean!
