To celebrate being done with school we went to the Salmon Celebration at Johnson Lake for the day with our friends the Stoll's. It was a great science field trip about all things to do with fish. The first thing we did was release Rainbow trout into the lake.
They put fry in the bowls then we carried them to the lake. Several jumped out on the way but Emerald was great at catching them.
Then we spent the next three hours visiting 30 different stations on everything from fish identification, to watershed models, to flycasting, to rubberized scat identification.
Lunch time, which Jayce and Eli spent proofreading and correcting one of the handouts. Silly boys! The weather was wonderful and we left sunburned, tired and happy.
