The Fishing Rod

When Laura was around two months old, Dave's parents (Dick and Vi) came out to visit us in Fort Ord California. One of the first things Dick did, was he grabbed Danny and tossed him up over his shoulders and Danny just squealed with laughter. Ringo lunged at Dick with his teeth barred, I'm so glad I was standing right there and was able to grab him. After that, Dick never did like that dog.

Dave had bought Danny a little rod and reel and he just loved it. It had a little weight on the end so he could practice casting. Dave told him not to take it outside (why I'm not sure because that is where it should be used) , I'm sure he had his reasons. Danny couldn't resist, he wanted to show it off to his little friends in the neighborhood. He snuck it out of the house without any of us seeing him. Then he was afraid he would be caught if he tried bringing it back in ---so he hid it under our car in the open carport. The next day, Dave pulled out of the carport and there layed the rod and reel. Danny was busted!! He didn't get in much trouble though because he was still such a little guy.

  2. I think so. We didn't do any better with them than we did with fish.
