I've been a hard working girl at the office for over a month now. I'm really liking my new job, but I have to say, I'm missing a little bit of that thing called sunshine. I'm no where near a, um, what's the word, oh, window. I'm missing a little of that Vitamin D.August is nearly over (WOW), and I have not even the faintest swimsuit tan lines. Not only do Jayne and I represent opposite ends of the height spectrum, but we now can draw attention to our opposing skin shades on the color wheel: She is so brown from a 21-day Grand Canyon Adventure, and I'm so white like something the camera guys white-balance their cameras with. In fact, I'd even go as far as to say my stomach is as white as the Korean ladies faces who walk around Seoul under an umbrella.
In other words, it was about time I got up to the mountains to have some summer fun!
I knew my friends would know how to show me a good time. And they did not disappoint!
It was my first float trip in 6 years, so I was basically what we fondly call in snowboarding a "first timer"--but I now know how to "put in" and "take out"!
We leisurely paddled down the Colorado. We put in at the Pumphouse and took out at Rancho de Rio, just above State Bridge. We swam through the Eye of the Needle (Trish & Natalie), and stopped for a dip in the hot springs,  |
It was a gorgeous gorgeous day. Good times and good friends (minus the whole getting stung in the bum by a bee thing...).
If only everyday was this much fun!
