Floatin' the River...
On Wednesday Kaitlynn, Salina, Alicia, Roxanne and I decided to float the Boise River. We rented a six-person raft in Barber Park, lathered on the sunblock and set off down the river at about 4:25pm. Boy was that water freezing!! At the first waterfall Kaitlynn got soaked as she was trying to duck down and keep from getting wet! :) On the second waterfall we got stuck at the top when our raft encountered a big rock. Roxanne and I got out and pushed the boat but it didn't budge. Then Alicia got out too and we finally managed to get the raft free. We quickly hopped back in before it left without us and we were back on our way! The third waterfall was fun and very wet. We had to pull over to shore to dump out all the extra water. The rest of the trip was pretty relaxing... Roxanne and Alicia swam part of the way. We got to Ann Morrison park at around 6:15pm where Mark met me to drive me back to my car. After I picked up the girls we grabbed something from McDonald's and headed for home. It was a fun day and we all hope to be able to float one more time before the summer is over.

I never got to float the river before we moved :(
Wow! That was like a short story in English class or something. Chocked full of information and very timeline oriented. Good Job!!
