Rafting Trip on the Deschutes

We had a great time on our annual overnight rafting trip on the Deschutes. Check out this link to see some cool pics of us going over Oak Springs. Todd is rowing the first boat and the pictures start on the second line. His boat is packed with gear, so when you look through the pics you should be able to notice Todd rowing. Randy is guiding the next boat with Liz and I in the front. Notice, how I almost got booted out of the boat by the rapid. Eekhoff is next in his kayak. This is the link to the Boxcar rapid pictures. They only got Todd rowing with Nicka in his boat and Kevin in the inflatable kayak. Rita and Steve watched Meadow for us for the weekend and she apparently had a great time with the grandparents. It was so nice to be able to have a really fun weekend with some new and old friends. Sara, we missed you!!!!!

Our tent. The sun was pretty bright in the morning and blaring right on Todd, so we were up pretty early.
Making blueberry pancakes for breakfast. They were sooooooooooo good.

Nicka and myself enjoying some beverages. Todd picked up some beer made by Caldera brewing for the trip. We have to give them some props. Their microbrew is amazing in a can.
