Ack!

Actually, I watched "the locals" do that dip-net thing last year. Damn crazy fools, if you ask me! They lose/kill people doing that all the time. Why risk life and limb when you can just go catch your 6 fish in minutes up near Soldotna?

This "raft" thing is scarring me, though! I can only wish it's as nice as the General Lee! I picture The Kid with one oar, me with the other, paddling and screaming like crazy as my cousin fishes away! I dunno why, but I envision scenes from "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"!

The Kid is deathly afraid of bears. I don't know why, seeing how he's part Eskimo. I really hope we encounter some big bears on this trip! I want to see just how fast The Kid can run (as long as it's not as fast as me, I'm ok )! Hopefully, the bear up by Bob's Salmon Creek will still be there!
