Summer & Billy lake fishing
Summer & Billy went fishing one day in the middle of
May. Boat drifting so calm, first bite was quick,
brought in a Crappi, then a big catfish. Summer was
pleased with the luck she found this warm lovely
evening in May. Then behind her a splash, what was
that, a big fish surely jumping around! But as she
turned to see the big fish, it was Billy the Rat
(terrier)not a big cat! He had jumped off the boat to
explore, taking weeds & algae abound. Summer jumped in
the yucky brown-yellow marsh shoes, cell phone & all.
Grabbing for Bill as he paddled to the hill, he ran in
circles when he hit solid ground, Summer too, yelling
BILLY, BILLY, DOWN! Finally giving in, he let himself
be caught & put back in the boat. Both just glad to be
back afloat. Well the fishing was over as Bill was
a-shake & Summer c-c cold as well. So with Bill wrapped
in towels & sun dropping low they headed back for the
dock. Summer glad to have Bill in her arms & holding
him close to her heart.
