i see you also taught him how to correctly hold the fish for the camera

eric, the water situation is dire in nor cal, my pond has never been lower at this time of year. our late winter/early spring rains never came, january-may was the driest on record. i am far enough north of the Rim fire (near yosemite) smoke has not been too bad, couple days here and there, but we've been lucky our SW delta breezes have been working to keep the smoke blowing east. nevada has probably had enough of CA smoke at this point tho.
