white water rafting with the educators

marlene, shyla, cami, and i had quite the adventure going white water rafting last week.  from an abandoned campsite straight outta a B horror film, to making friends with the visiting fire fighters from mo-val, to sleeping on the back of an inflatable raft/boat under the stars, and floating down the river through class 2 rapids.  you can read more about it here on marlene’s blog, but true to form, i just wanna post up some pictures right now.  maybe i’ll fill in the rest of the story later…

anyways, you can see us here tackling the rapids!




i have a wicked bruise on my back from belly-flopping on my back (back-flopping?) while jumping off a jump rock, doing a forward flip and not rotating fully.  my arms are soooo dark from all my outdoors activities i’ve been doing, but i’m not really that sore.  my body’s getting used to all this fun stuff =) i’d have to say thanks to neil from dave’s sports bar for calling us pretty ladies and giving us $5 for the jukebox.  and the fire ant 3am tent invasion could never be forgotten, along with the body bags being dumped into the water… hmm… would that have been related to this sign we saw earlier that day?

at any rate, we had a lotta fun laughing about our misfortunes while they were happening knowing full well we can tell this story over and over again.  here’s to having our summers off and to the adventures we had!!!
