Day #3 Part 1

On Saturday morning we were a little slow to get going. We made a mountain man breakfast in the dutch oven for breakfast and got our lunches ready for the big day of river rafting. Torri is a river guide and came very prepared to take us down the Colorado.

We got to the "Put in Point" and she inflated her raft, handed out life jackets and we all sunscreened up! We hopped in the raft and off we went down the fast flowing river...just kidding...this time of year, we basically floated down the river.
The scenery was so pretty and we had a great time splashing each other with the oars. We had a tragedy on the boat though! Bekka was blinded by the sunscreen that had dripped into her eyes, so she spent some time working that out!
At one point, there were actually some decent rapids so we pretended that we were in the movie, "River Wild" and we had to paddle hard to get through them. It was fun...I just wish there would have been more rapids.
