River fun!!










We have the most awesome neighbors, we went out the to Applegate river with them 2 week ends ago and had so much fun!! The water was beautiful and it was super HOT out, so even though it was pretty cold it felt good! All the kids got right in, even Marlee was playing in it no big deal! Up a little ways is a little rapid so the Dads took the kids in inter tubes down it...it was lots of fun! There is also a rope swing that is a crazy jump, it hangs from a tree on a cliff that is like 20 feet up from the river and you have to hold on forever before you can let go so you don't hit the rocks, so my neighbor, Mike....does it just fine...but when it's Chris's turn he can't just go off the rope swing, nooooo....he climbs a tree like 10 more feet so it is the most dangerous it could possibly be!!! Of course he loved it!! I didn't get a pic because I was to nervous to look away!
