Pictures

My mom hasn't e-mailed me the pictures of the Rouge River so I can't post them with this post.





Something happenpend on the river that I never thought would happen. My mom and I fell out in the class 2 rapids. There was at least 4 of them that we had to swim through. Luckily my dad was in front of us so he could catch us. He pulled me in after the rapids and my mom held onto the boat. Finally we got to shore!!! My cousin Dylan who was in his own raft got the boat my mom and I were in and he also got the paddle. And he rapidly paddled to the shore with them. My other cousin Dusty caught the seat and paddled to shore too.


I almost forgot to say that there was another set of rapids right after a few meters of calm water that's why Dylan paddled rapidly. After all of that happened I went down the rest of the river with my dad in my mom's boat and my mom went down with my dad's stronger boat.





Of course my sister wasn't there because she is not in the story above. She was with our aunt and uncle (Dylan and Dusty's parents) back at camp learning how to skip rocks. When we got to the boat ramp at Indian Mary Amanda didn't seem to care whatsoever. She said "Well I learned how to skip rocks!!" That's all I have to say right now. I will post some pictures when my mom e-mails them to me.
