No fishing and camping pictures this month because... Alison and Lucas got married! So, that's my focus for this post. Nothing else really mattered...

The photos are in chronological order, more-or-less, from when Alison and Lucas first arrived in the world, then 15 years later around the time they they met (as you'll see they were made for each other :-)), and then they fell in love, got engaged and got married.

The beautiful wedding photos are just a few of the hundreds made by Tiffany Walde.

May, 2014

I'm catching up! 'Only six months behind now...

May brought a big event - Alison graduated from Emily Carr University of Art & Design! Yet another reason love spring. The fish are waking up and I even caught a few, I was able to get my school flyfishing club out for a couple of fishing trips, Alison and Lucas met Sadie, and so did Barry and Marie Solieil and their pups Gadget and Pippi. 'Twas a good month!

Greeting us as we arrived at the UBC Chan Centre for the Emily Carr Convocation

The Chan Centre was a great venue for the convocation ceremony

Here's Alison receiving her degree!

Proud parents with Alison Woodward, B.F.A.

After the convocation we went and enjoyed the grad art show.
This is the caption for Alison's piece.

Well done, Alison!

Some of the gang at our first SMS Flyfishing Club fish-out of the year.
We fished Hall Rd pond, stocked with catchables for kids by GoFishBC.

Fish on!

Sophia's first time fishing!

Sometimes tangles happen...

Success!

The gang lined up at our second fish-out at Shannon Lake.

I even managed to get out and fish a bit.
This one was caught in Zipperlip Lake. Gotta love that Moby net!

Another one from Zipperlip. Amazingly, Sadie's not trying to eat it!

They are slippery devils... ;-)
