A Parade of Boats


It was a balmy 102 degree day in the Rogue Valley and perfect weather for parading around in boats! Georgia, Texas, Colorado, California and Oregon were part of the paddling fun. Paul, Joey, Don, Diane, and Ellie enjoyed the Rocket Boat and the inflatable kayaks. Don was fairly adept at the over-the shoulder shot with the 'dip stick' squirt gun, Joey held his own against everyone and Ellie was the one that apparently started it all! Paul had a great ride through Rooster Tail riding the bull. What a great family and such fun to spend the day with them all!

Frank and Donna cooled off and sweet Frank even took a turn at the helm so row his girl down the river. What a great way to celebrate Donna's birthday. Frank was also heavily armed with water fighting power and Donna enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

Jack and Jane brought the grandkids out west for an extra special treat. Allison, Jack Junior, McCall, and Chelsea rode in style in the big orange raft, in the inflatable kayaks and in their life jackets! The cool waters of the Rogue were a welcome relief even for the Southerners.

Thanks to one and all for a great day of whitewater rafting in Oregon.

  1. Yesterday on my way home from hot, muggy work I was thinking how nice the river must be right now for O'B's RR rafting. Now that I have pulled up the pictures, I knew I was right. What a fun beautiful day and the best way to keep cool! Hope today proves to be just as wonderful for you and your guests. Lucky them!

    Love, Trina
