Lois and I spent Easter with my daughter and family. Of course I brought up the subject of our Boundary Waters trip with my grandson Jakob. I asked him what he was most looking forward to, camping, sleeping in the wilderness, canoeing, eating outdoors, or even the company of his dad and grandfather? I was hoping for the unexpected wisdom of youth but willing to take most anything. Of course his answer had nothing to do with my hopes. Instead Jake said, "I want to catch a really big fish." There were any number of things I could make happen, but a big fish? Crap. Oh well, I hope his idea of really big is realistic.
