Rolling On the Rivers

We did manage a float on the Boise River this summer and then Chad and I went on an all day excursion on the Payette.  Doot doot doot doot doot doot doot doot (I'm singing Proud Mary by Tina Turner in case you couldn't tell by the doots--Doots should be a word).

What is not to love about this photograph?

My sister and her fiance.

Recently, she has taken to making herself a badge and calling herself "Mayor".  Getting some practice in.

Man, those vests pack a powerful wedgie.

Awwwww.

Now here's the Payette trip.  Doot doot doot doot doot doot doot doot.

I might be wearing a swimsuit, a wet suit, two waterproof jackets and a life vest.  When you start out at 8 am, it takes a little while for the world to warm.

An impromptu picture at lunch.

The crew:  Chad, Self, Alex, Katy, Michael, and Crystal.

Ride the bull.

At the tail end, you could get out and walk.  I stayed inside the raft--still warming up.

My sister-in-law and me.
