Mike doing some frog-gigging in the Rhine. We were on a walk and he just trotted down to the river and picked up a stick. I took the picture without understanding and then asked him what that was all about. Apparently a popular thing for the Schultzes to do. His uncle Howard, his wife Barbara, and their parents went on a Rhine cruise, and when someone asked "really, what did you do there?" Howard would tell them all about Frog-Gigging, where you would hunt the giant frogs of the Rhine with big sticks. Quite fun. Then he would say "what do you think we did? It's the Rhine. We drank wine and looked at castles." Perhaps you have to know the Schultzes to understand....
