A little more on my little brother

One thing that the article about Steve didn’t go into was how he was spending his “summer off” after ending his hockey career.

I think I can explain that in pictorial form. Here’s a picture from late summer:

and here’s a picture from early fall:

Steve’s quote: “42.5 inches, 16.5 lbs. I still want the big one.”

I wonder if he’ll get the chance to find that big one now that he’s on to his next career–I suspect that since he lives on the lake, he won’t have any trouble finding time.

Oh, and check out the mouth on that thing:

I thought my Dad was kidding when he used to joke about how the “Muskie will bite your toes”, but Steve pulled those things out of the same lake we swam in as kids, so I guess not.
