We had a great time this afternoon kayaking down the Willamette River. Katie and I were in one kayak and Daniel and Mark in the other. Both boats were 'packin heat', which means we were carrying water guns. About midway into our ride the boys fired a warning shot over the bow of our kayak. Katie returned their warning shot with one of her own, which didn't quite make it over the boat. The battle began and before long we were all drenched and laughing hysterically while trying to keep the boats upright! We finally had to declare a truce. We navigated through a couple of class 1 rapids, which basically means we said, "Wheeeee" as we went through them. All and all...a glorious day!
Yes, I know, the url name doesn't really match the blog name. We are what I like to call a "nomadic' family. We have moved more than most. We are currently in our sixth state. For some reason we find ourselves drawn to homes that need a bit of rehab. Most of our postings as of late are focused around our most current house, and some random ramblings.
