I’m having a grand adventure part 1 (White water rafting!)

image

I’m spending this weekend with some girlfriends, on an adventure trip! Today was white water rafting! (That’s me , front left, and my friend Beth playing line leader. Rachel is alll the way in the back. She didn’t feel like taking every wave smack in the face I guess. )

What goes down…..

Must come up!

We rafted under the highest suspension bridge in North America. (Which it turns out is a bridge to nowhere. Apparently it was built on a bet between two rich guys to see if it could be done.)

We had a blast but the real adventure is coming tomorrow;)

Anyone else got an adventure planned for this week??

P.S. I have a crazy update coming on my cat Luna, part III of my series with Sheba! (You can read part II and part I here.)

  1. Ooh, the suspense of waiting for part II. Swimming to an underwater cavern to go spelunking?

    • As I recall from prior posts…

      Charlotte is a “hold-her-nose-in-the-pool” pretty much adverse to swimming kind-of-swimmer.

      So Charlotte swimming to an underwater cave may just be an inch-by-terrifying and traumatic-inch freak-out of epic proportions.

      Perhaps she will use the Bigfoot Field Research Organization’s app on Google Maps to track down and photograph a Sasquatch, get rich…

      …and retire young.

  2. Looks like a lot of fun, can’t wait to see what’s next! 🙂 We are riding our bikes a long way in circles tomorrow. It sounds weird, but I’m totally looking forward to it!

  3. No adventures planned for THIS week…

    …but LATER ON?

    … I TOTALLY plan on wearing white after Labor Day…

  4. Just me vs the out of control garden this weekend, Should be an epic battle!

  5. If by adventure you mean taking all 4 kids to Home Depot on a Saturday, then why yes, I do have adventure planned this weekend. Have fun with your friends! I have lived in Colorado for 12 years now and still haven’t made it to the Royal Gorge.

  6. You’re brave!!! Good job! I’d never do white water rafting. (well, I take that back. I DID white water raft last year, 8 months pregnant with our 3 and 8 year old in a big water canoe. We just didn’t realize it was going to be white water! Uff da! We all lived but…bad memories.) Have fun on the rest of your adventure!

  7. A girl I romanced/dated/became engaged to/then she broke my heart/but we’re still friends…

    …is in Istanbul.

    There are currently riots in Istanbul.

    Concerned, I contacted her.

    She’s fine, but her friend got tear-gassed.

    Unexpected adventure happens too.

  8. Can you say LAKE POWELL baby! Beautiful, but low water.
