You can tell how close the croc is to the boat


He was right there just waiting for one of us to jump in to swim with him.

Fishing trip to Gatun

I had to post this story about our fishing trip to Gatun Lake on Saturday. First off it was a great day fishing. Bryce and I went with our friend Justin Peterson and his son Bridger on his boat. I caught three good size fish and had a total of around 40 fish that we kept. The interesting thing that happened was that we were stalked by a croc (Caiman) for around 2 hours. Every where that we went the croc would follow us. He was not scared at all and never once did he submerge himself because he was scared of us. We feed him a couple of the little fish that we caught and he chowed down on them. At one point we even went around 300 yards accross the lake and not 20 minutes later here he came slowly strolling right up to the boat. It was the most amazing thing. At one point he got within a foot of the boat. We also saw another 5 or 6 other croc's swimming around while we were fishing. Here are a few pictures of the event.

Summer update

It is about time for me to do another update. Probably way past time but finding time and taking time to post updates is so hard. Anyway, let me get on with the update.
Jared and Bryce spent three weeks in Utah and Arizona. They had a mid year vacation from school so we sent them to EFY at BYU and also some friends (Levie's) invited them to spend a week on Lake Powell on their House Boat. Dewey (our friend) also took them to the Grand Canyon on the way to Utah and by Temple square and Bryce Canyon on the way back to Arizona.
Moe and I enjoyed the three weeks with Adriana here in Panama. Raquel is enjoying being off on her own at school. She just finished her first semester at LDS Business College. She is spendig the next two weeks in Arizona staying with family there.

Needless to say they had a blast. They ended their trip by spending time with Mark and Janel at their house and also visiting with Moe's family.
