March 22-24, 2002

For my 23rd birthday, I wanted to get away from the city for a weekend and soak in the beauty of nature.  I met up with Tom, Sung, Austin and Ed at Lake Nacimiento, which was located about halfway between San Fran and LA.  We arrived there late Friday evening, set up camp, and had ourselves a grand old time doing what guys do best. 

Chillin'.

Pretty lake!

 

Wildlife was abundant.  They wouldn't let us hunt deer though...

 

This is the tent that we set up.  At first it looks innocent...but upon closer inspection:

...Tom's butt was lurking underneath!!  The horror!!

 

The first morning we decided to rent some boats and go fishing.  We figured we'd catch our dinner on a budget...using nice fishing poles, two rented boats, some fishing licenses, and some tackle equipment we had to buy...in retrospect it ended up being a $200 dinner.

For some reason, having a fishing pole in our possession made us do funny things with them like enacting fencing matches and acting like we were directing planes.

It's good to know that we're maturing.

Wheeee!

 

Sung's steering the boat while Tom's...navigating...?

 

Ed's first catch!

 

Ed's second catch!

 

While handling the second fish, Ed was caught...in a compromising picture still:

HA HA HA~!!

 

In all Ed caught four fish and I caught one, but we let all of them go except this 17 inch large-mouth bass.  She would become the victim of our voracious appetites in the form of a delicious broth.

Cool, huh?

 

All in all, a great way to celebrate my 23rd.  It seems like I could never stay away from the water on my birthdays!
