White Water Rafting Weekend!

Edited to add: Additional photos can be seen at www.fishcampfellowship.blogspot.com . Sorry, they are not that great. My disposable camera took a beating and dunking in my fanny pack!

Corbin and I had a wonderful time white water rafting down the Chattooga this past Saturday. We went with our church's youth group and it was so exciting. This is the 2nd time I have been and it was a bit harder this time because the water level was so low due to the lack of rain. We really had to work to get around rocks and to get unstuck sometimes.
I will try to get some photos posted later this week that I took with my disposable camera. Hopefully, they will turn out ok since my camera did get a little wet.
In the mean time, you can view our professional photos online:

My photos start with the 4th photo on the top row (Photos 29-38). Looking at the photo, I am on the right on the back row.
Corbin's photos start with the next series (Photos 39-53). Looking at the photo, he's on the left on the back row (red shorts). As you will be able to see, his raft did not survive the drop!
Photo 79 is our group.
And don't forget to check out photos 94 and 103. This is where Corbin and I jumped off one of those big rocks into the roaring water where we just dropped off in our rafts.
If you have never done this, it is a blast!

Well I know you had a great time. But, I get the willies just looking at those pictures. You'd have had to bring me home in a coffin. I admire your adventurous spirit. Alas, I love my dull life. Excitement for me is 8:00am traffic. :-) Hugs.
