While on vacation, we went to the Square Rigger for a fish boil with some of our dear friends. Fish boils are a huge thing in Wisconsin during the summer. We had such a good time.

Jack and Jesse, this is the couple that I lived with before Mike and I got married. They quickly became my family there, I miss them.

Ohhhhh, Dave and Sara, they were/are our best friends. They moved into the branch shortly after Mike and I got married. Sara was an answer to my prayers, I pleaded with my Heavenly Father to send me a friend and I couldn't have picked a better friend myself. I learned, and continue to learn so much from her. I often find myself really missing spending time with her.

The Fish Boil

It is done outside, and as it starts to really boil, they throw kerosene on the top of it to cause it to boil over, getting rid of the fat.

The boil over, it is a pretty cool thing to watch.

The fish is in the top basket and the potatoes, carrots and onions are in the bottom basket.

How interesting and fun. It looks like Wisconsin's version of a luau.

mmmm....sounds absolutely delicious; fish which I hate and kerosene on top of that! It does look cool though.
