Fishing and I got one!!

First I caught this

Then Iranimo caught this

Then he caught one

Then I caught this

He is just posing with MINE! hee hee

What a fun day, we were both new fishing people. He is a little wet from one of his marvelous casts...hee hee.

I had myself a big knot I was undoing while I look over to watch him do a big cast, he forgot to flip that thing over and cast himself right into the Arctic Ocean. He looks over right away to see if the new guy was watching he was not but I sure was. I was laying on the ground laughing..
When I got my big one on the line he was running up and down yelling pull it in.. I said I was trying but it was pulling me everywhere. So he grabs the line and trys to pull it, he says whoa and starts yelling again pull it in, why you playing with it... Finally I got it to the shore and just as it lands on the sand and tide the hook cames out. I yelled grab it, he does. So I will have to share the glory with him. Now he is hooked, wants to fish all the time. He was gaurding the last two nights has a little sleep then gets up and says lets go fishing...

Inukshuk watching over the graves.

Here  a few more days then head home to Kugluktuk. It has been a long two weeks away from Hubby. But I have been busy year end always busy.This is also where they hunt the Nar Whales, the ones with the long tusks. The hunt starts in August, wish I could see them swimming. Still light all night, and the kids play outside all night. Different life up here, but I still smile everytime I htink I am on top of the world, what an experience... You gotta do it!
