Leech Lake 2.012

June 9th-16th was the annual cabin vacation. This year was a little different because I didn't have anyone to accompany me and meg brought her boyfriend. I was a little unsure of how things would go since I wouldn't have someone to constantly occupy me and I had to share a room with a SNORER.

However, I brought some ear plugs and had a really great time. I got to know Meg's boyfriend pretty well which was nice but also kind of sad since they've been dating for 5 ish years...maybe should have happened a little bit sooner.

On the first day of vacation (saturday) I caught a 28 inch northern. This was the biggest fish of the week up until Wednesday when Annette caught a 30 inch one. Overall this wasn't the most impressive fishing trip. We caught a ton of rock bass and perch, and a few Northerns, but none were really all that big besides the two. There were also only a couple walleye caught this year. It was a good trip either way.

While I was up there I went on a few jogs. It was nice since I'm used to jogging in Mankato with nothing neat to look at, and up there I was on a forest lined highway.

I went to the casino for the first time on this trip and decided I'd much rather keep my money. I lost $30 playing the slot machines. I guess beginners luck failed me this time.

Since I was going to be gone for a week, a coworker and I decided to mess with some of the nurses and make them think I quit. Apparently it caused quite the ruckus and kind of freaked out my boss since I forgot to give her a heads up that rumors might be flying....I had a lot of good laughs reading text messages from my conspirator over the reaction from this little prank.
