Galilee by the Sea

We have no real idea when John 21 took place. Keith Drury has commented below that it would have taken at least 2 1/2 days to get back to Galilee from Jerusalem at break neck speed. And if we go with John, we should see it some time late next week at the earliest. But I'm going to tell it today.

Peter, Thomas, Nathanael, James, John, and two others are fishing overnight on the Sea of Tiberias (=Galilee). They are not having much success come morning.

Then someone on the shore tells them to throw their nets on the other side and they have a massive haul. Peter says, "It's the Lord!" He jumped in the water and headed for shore.

Then Jesus cooked breakfast for them.
