Do you like catfish? This is an image of a catfish that Sam caught in the Northeast Cape Fear River on Sunday. Sam is my nephew from Alaska, and he and his dad love to fish off Dad and Jean's floating dock. It was getting close to dusk when Sam finally claimed his fish. This was after a full day with family and food under Dad and Jean's house at the river. As you can imagine, the Alaskan family only get to visit, at most, once a year, so as many of the family as could gathered to celebrate Memorial Day, and partake in all the usual holiday fare of hot dogs, burgers, etc. The food was great...especially the deserts, but even better was the companionship of family and friends and neighbors from next door. I think that is what holidays are all about...sharing with family.
Now, when do we get to eat the catfish?

Late afternoon appt. for him tomorrow. Going to Cedar Grove church Saturday to see their community garden. Lots of folks from here will be going. Can't wait.
