Gone Fishing

Posted in memories

And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 1:28

 The Fishing Photos

When our children were younger, one way the Lord filled our freezer was through fishing. Fishing makes for great memories so be sure to make time to throw a net or bait a hook this summer. And don’t forget the camera!
