I am doing new things today-Day 5

Today I am going ice fishing. This is not something I would normally do but a friend invited me to come for their birthday. She’s from Wisconsin and is all outdoors all of the time. Her family is big into things like deer hunting and cross-country skiing and I am just this little vegetarian from the city that has never touched a fishing pole.

I like the outdoors but I am just not always good at the outdoors. I can hike though so we can’t count me out for everything that is nature. I was told it was an “eat what you catch day” so good luck to me. If I catch a fish today, I will update this with my winnings.

I keep having this thought that today is going to be 61 degrees and we are going to sit on a lake that is hopefully going to still be frozen. It wouldn’t be unlike me to somehow fall through the ice. *knock on wood that I don’t*. I don’t know, maybe I should bring my swimsuit and floaties instead.
