Fishing on Columbia River

Three of us went on a guided fishing trip, originally purchased for four people.

The toughest parts were
(1) getting up at 2:30am to prep for the trip to make sure we get to the river by 6am
(2) hold the pee for 8 hours straight while we were on the river
(3) letting go 7 fish (2 wild coho salmon, 4 chinook salmon and 1 taken by a sea lion, no joke).

The best part was taking home three 20-lb coho salmon and having the freshest steamed fish heads for dinner that night. Yes, fish heads, arguably the best part of a fish. You ought not to make faces until you've tried it. =)

Flipping a zucchini pancake

This was the most successful one among the four I attempted.
