It's funny, I have my 14yrold niece here from NH visiting for the summer as a treat for doing well in school. We are doing our best to show her all the different things that our area can bring, events, food, cultural experiences, ect. Her living situation back east is less than ideal with minimal opportunities for real growth. After the event she could not stop talking about how nice everyone was, the food, the open friendship and of course Shuland. She loved it!

That pretty sums it up in a nutshell.
Unless you experience it, you really cannot convey all it has to offer.

Had a wonderful time at Albion as always.  Got to hang out with the usual suspects and caught a glimpse of some of my older fishing buddies.  Finally got to go to Glass Beach in Fort Bragg.....twice in one weekend.  Thanks Narisa and Victor for the invite. Here are a couple pics. Didn't take too many since I was too busy cooking and hanging out.  :mrgreen:

Thanks Craig and Linelle for all the hard work you put in to make this event possible.  And thank you to all the people that stepped up in Craig's absence.......you guys did an amazing job.  Congrats to all the winners.....well deserved.  There were definitely some beastly looking lings caught.

Dam Mike I wish I knew this we had 2 14 yr old girls in our camp at schooners. They did ride to the main camp ground a couple times. I took them on Sunday to the Avenue of the Giants as one of the girls had never seen the redwoods.

In the game of biggest fish, if you can't enjoy routinely gettin' your ass handed to you, by great fishermen, then you don't belong in the NCKA.
