My brother John loved to go fishing. This all started with our dad who also loved to go fishing. Ever since John was big enough to hold a fishing pole they would head out to their favorite lake. They always rented a small boat and would enjoy the day together. It didn’t matter if they caught one it was more about spending time together and enjoying the peacefulness of the lake surrounded by nature. John continued to do this on his own long after our dad was not around. I think John found his “peaceful place” sitting in his boat, fishing pole in hand, where he could relax and be trouble free.
