Our family went for a fishing trip a couple of weeks ago-didn't catch any fish but look what we did find...
From CBS 11 News....
ARLINGTON...
Gloria Newhouse appeared tired, weary and wet. Her 6-year-old nephew, Dre, seemingly unharmed and wet, too, wondered about all the fuss. But, there was plenty of reason to worry. The pair had taken too long and when dusk fell, tension heightened. The boy out on his first Jet Ski ride fell off the watercraft on Saturday and was lost for as many as three hours before he was found floating in the middle of Lake Arlington. "I been feeling kind of worried for the last couple of hours 'cause I knew ... I knew something was wrong. I could feel something just wasn't right," the boy's uncle, Tony Newhouse, said. Gloria Newhouse also was thrown from the watercraft and was found first. She attempted to flag down boaters for nearly two hours before someone saw her, she said. Rhonda Lawyer and her brother, Grant Froelich, only meant to go out on a quick 30-minute boat ride with relatives, but decided to turn it into fishing trip instead. They admitted when they saw something flashing in the water, their first thought was that it was a buoy. "We have four children in the boat going for a little boat ride," rescuer Rhonda Lawyer recalled. "So, we pulled her in the boat said she had a baby 6 years old on the jet ski. We're like 'What jet ski?' " The boy -- still in his life vest -- was found an hour later despite no lights on the watercraft. "I told him, 'it's a miracle you were found. We prayed for this and you're here for a reason. You need to thank God tonight,' " an emotional Lawyer said. The citizen rescuers said the whistle he blew helped them find him.
