Summer Ice Cream Social

In Summer 2000 we beat the heat with some local Philadelphia Ice Cream. Unlike the fishing trip below, no one caught anything but no one got sick either.

Fishing in The Atlantic Ocean

The first year graduate class headed out from Cape May to catch a few fish one bright and sunny day. Everyone caught at least one fish. We cooked them up and had a great lunch the next day. The largest "Croaker" was about 1.5 pounds.

The first trip was so successful we went out again on a night fishing to catch the monster blues, average weight 15 pounds. The weather and ocean was rough but we were tough.
