going fishing

Our son is really pretty amazing. We're going to a friend's cottage. I told him this morning that the lake was shallow and weedy, and he correctly guessed the type of fish that would be living there and from that the type of lures we'd be using.

But then again, when we went fishing with a friend's family last week, it was interesting to watch that eight year old helping one of the teenagers deal with a snag.

rand()m quote

I'd see the publicity guy come on the set and I'd go hide in the rafters. The crew would be like, ‘I haven't seen him.' And then they'd leave and I'd go back to work. Because that's what's fun: the doing, not the talking.
