Monday Memory- moments on the ice

 I love the adventures Rigby has shared with me and our "Fab Five" over the past 20 years of our marriage.  Our memories on the ice capture "the hidden" adventures of Southern Utah.  I am always surprised when I discover that Southern Utah natives have never had a chance to ice fish.
 This time we took some "newbies" ice fishing.  Some were locals and others Californians.  It was fun to share one of our winter favorites with them.  Thankfully, we have access to some private ponds in not far from our hometown and spent a fun morning making memories.
 Rigby explained to them the intricacies of ice fishing- the gear, the methods, the patience.  I enjoyed watching him share his love of the outdoors with those who rarely have the opportunity to view him in his element.
 It was also fun to see them all squirm a little when the ice starting cracking- too cool!
 Our children had fun exploring, fishing, and playing.  And of course nothing beats hot chocolate and chili dogs on the ice.
 We were glad they all hooked a fish and now can share their own "Fish tales" of their day spent on Southern Utah ice!
