elvis in alaska

my little levi, or "elvis" as he's called in alaska ~ (same letters just mixed up), has been fishing with the locals for the past week. here are a few pictures of their fish from dip netting on the kenai river. they caught 87 reds one day and 70 another day.

elvis' job is to pop the gills so the fish bleed out and stay fresh. i'll spare you the details, but it's a dirty job that would make mike rowe proud of my little 8 year old fisherman.

i miss this kid, stink and all.

Just think if he were to see you right now he would want to run and give you a big bloody hug.

Levi had the time of his life. His eyes sparkled from the time he woke up until the time he went to bed. Levi can be entertained with literally anything. The guys were amazed that when the fishing got slow, they observed Levi with his little knife out "stabbing" flies!
Gramma loves Levi too!
