Look What Cousin Dave Caught!

Mark sent this picture of our cousin Dave (Grooms not Rowe) with this monster------ (of course Mark doesn't know how to type, so there are no particulars as to when this was caught or how big it weighs) I'm guessin' it's close to 35 lbs. But will wait for Dave to tell us the story in the comments. Can ya smoke striper?

(click on the pic to enlarge) I enhanced the photo on top with photoshop. the one on the bottom is the original. But a picture's worth more than a thousand words, right Mark?

Can you guess who this is?

There's a prize for the first one to identify this feller in comments. NO MORE PRIZE

Update: Jim, Sue, and Mom: Look at the back of the picture which I posted to the right!

I've loaded a few old pictures in the "family photo" file click on the link to the left or here

Update 2: I've added a picture of Pat Rowes birthday in 1957. See if you can guess all who are in this one.......(including Tom) click on picture to enlarge

Happy Birthday Karen

May 8th, 1954-----Karen Crumley blessed this world with her presence. The daughter of Jack and Bobbi Crumley and sister of Jack Crumley II,(Deuce) has resided in the state of New York for many years. Karen and Thatcher Keats have one son (Clement) and I think they have a man eatin' dog too.

Happy Birthday Karen----We Love You!

Update: Mom sent me the last picture a few minutes ago---
