This past Thursday - Wes, Rick and I got to fry up some Catfish for about 50 of Waco's Cornerstone Building Partners for the Waco Habitat for Humanity. This is a non-denominational Christian housing ministry helping to eliminate substandard and poverty housing in Waco - since 1986, Waco Habitat for Humanity has built over 130 simple, decent, affordable homes in partnership with low-income families in need. This is TightLines second year sponsoring this event...
The Fish Fry went GREAT! Emily and John helped make the event smooth and easy! If you ever want to do something special for our community - go and volunteer to help build a house - the people at Habitat are super. My wife Leni is a volunteer along with many of our Little Caesars staff members. They will all tell you - the feeling of helping others is nothing short of awesome!
This is my daughter Ashley - Ash and Nick are expecting my Grandchild about December 9th!!! They joined us for the fish fry. By the way - Nick and I tricked about 44.5 lbs of fish into the boat this morning!!! That equaled almost 14 lbs of filets 100 lbs of fun!
Here is Nick with a Bass we caught near the Waco Dam. Take note of the nice smile... Nick just graduated from Dental School - he and Ash are moving to Florida - where they will live while Nick is serving our Country in the Air Force. We are very proud of them!
On a side note... Dr. Sager was very careful to remove the hook from each fish with precision and compassion!
