My Extended Family

Four generations, all decendents of Nels and Lizzy, my Great Grandparents. If my Grandparents were still alive, five generations would be represented here.

Shasta

Caught a nice rainbow on the McCloud River close to where it dumps into Lake Shasta. It's about 18". We do all catch and release - this guy was only out of the water long enough to get the picture.
