fishing derby

freezing winter days
lake fishing holes everywhere
bob houses galore

Oh wow...I look at all the moistness around
and wonder if everyone is safe in their bobbing houses!

Everyone was safe. The lake had to be plowed and the snow was melting. It was so wet that I was drenched up to my knees!

We don't fish, but we love to go and walk around and look at the different houses!

Marti, I enjoyed the poem and the picture. This was very new and interesting for me.  I can see what a bob house IS, but what does it DO (besides bob) and why is it called a bob house?

Looks dangerous to me. I am sure it wasn't, but it sure looks that way.
