September Long Weekend 2003
Pine Point - Lac De Mille Lac

We spent our 3rd September Long Weekend at Pine Point. School didn't start this year until after the weekend so we were able to arrive earlier than usual for the party. We made the long drive Thursday afternoon and arrived just in time to eat. Not supper though, we missed that at camp and ate in Dryden. Just in time for one of the many snacks I guess. As usual we did an obscene amount of eatting.

Fishing tales...fishing was slow for most boats but as usual Bob's guiding did not fail. We caught 4 different kinds of fish. More bass then ever before as well as pike, perch and walleye. Dad won the weekend derby and Pilks won second! His best standing yet. My dad caught the biggest Northern I have ever seen.

 
Thursday night closed with some wormin'. The weather was rainy and the ground wet. Pilk's discovered it was harder to catch worms than he thought. He ended up holding the flashlight and bucket for Uncle Dave.
The ladies don't need any introduction, do they?


 
Friday was a day of a lot of drinking. A good warm up for the weekend.

 
Jim drank his back pain away and then the fishing began.

 


Once we convinced him to allow it in the boat he thought he might as well hold it up. We tried to measure it too but it was longer than our tape. That means 3+ feet easily.

 

  Following tradition we had a double birthday celebration for Paul Joy and Grandma Burnside.

 
Alexis got fooled by her dad's suggestion to smell the flowers on the cake. Fits of giggles followed.
The winners board proudly displays the derby winners for the weekend.


The Long Weekend in September brings to a close another fishing season for most of the fishermen at Pine Point. For those that fish longer...no problem but the derby ends here. A feast and awards presentation marks the day.

 
Bobby & Brian compare food. After dinner we are entertained by these three little girls.

 
The ducks got way more bread then we did.


Cam and Jerry bring in there catch of the day. Impressive stringer boys!

 
Pilks provides the after spaghetti dinner distraction with a big game of eye spy.

 
If you missed meeting this man at our wedding...I'd like to introduce you to ROCK...Rock Hard, and his wife Mrs. Rock.

 
Welcome to the newest Pine Point member...Kendra! Isn't she cute.

See you all again soon!!!
