River Rafting on the Salmon River

Rafting with my parents was so much fun!
I layed out glow sticks to light the path to the groover (poddy) station. One night, my sister wanted to go poddy but she was afraid there was an animal in the woods. My mom told her to go on ahead and that it was probably just a dear. The next night we saw a bobcat and it's prints all around our campsite. Poor sis. hahahaha
Our friends, Nadine, Brant, Greg and my sister Holly rafting with us.
We got the best campsite. It was hidden from the road right along the river. This is our kitchen area. Every evening we would get a sand storm so we had to weigh things down with big rocks. Glen and I woke up before everyone else to start breakfast. It was a little chilly in the mornings but would quickly heat up.
Me, Glen, Greg, Holly, Nadine and Brant. This was the morning we had to say goodbye. After they left, Glen and I took my parents down the river. We had our super soakers and got into water fights with other boats. It was a blast. We acted like pirates and hid our guns until the last moment and then we would reveal our water weapons and scare the other boats away.
