Skookumchuck Charters

Cousin Jim Mattson and his wife Launi return for their second cruise aboard Skookumchuck .  It was 43 years between visits for the cousins on their first trip but only two years to make the second one.  This time, the kids were to come along but, because of scheduling problems, the cruise had to be broken up into two separate segments.  Launi's son Kevin came on one and Jim's daughter Anna on the other.  We had fun times all around once again!

Well, it's not a king salmon but still good eating.
