okay, so i am at the beach with courtney and her parents for a few days and LOVING it!! this is my first time on Topsail and i am already trying to convince my parents to buy this amazing house that is right down the road from courtney's beach house. how fun would that be? i know...REALLY FUN!! anyway, we decided after dinner that we would walk down to the fishing pier because it was a nice night and we had been inside all day because of storms....sad, i know. anyhoo, we walked to the end of the pier and met a guy, wayne, who was fishing with his dad and some other relatives. well, being the extravert that i am, i struck up a conversation with wayne. come to find out he is stationed at Jacksonville, NC and is on combat leave from Iraq. he was there for a year and has to go back in november for thirteen more months...very sad.
anyway (i say that a lot on here, dont i?), he was fishing with a very large rod and since courtney's mom and i have decided that fishing would be fun we started to ask the experts about rods and reels and lines and bait and found out that this fishing thing is way complicated! well, right in the middle of our little chat his dad starts calling out that he has something on his line. UH YEAH HE DID...he had a shark. yes friends, a shark. now, mind you it was a little shark, a black tipped shark to be exact, but a shark nonetheless!!
this is a black tipped shark, by the way!
it was a really fun way to end my mini vacay...and i have also decided that a fishing pier would be a great place to start a ministry!
