White water rafting! We started with the scenic tour in the morning. It was about a 2 ½ hour ride. The whole family went on it. We saw a lot of wildlife. Saw 10 bald eagles! They are so cool. Their nests are about 7 feet wide. Some bigger! We saw some beautiful houses ($30mm - $50mm!!). Harrison Ford has 800 acres here. Whew! It was a nice ride through the valley (or hole!). For the afternoon Tracy and I went on the white water rafting. The company messed up our reservations but everything worked out. It was really fun. Evidently what we rode was a 3 out of 6 (6 being a waterfall and you can’t ride it). Tracy paddled while I sat back and got wet. I couldn’t paddle because of my shoulder. She did good! Tracy laughed and laughed at the guy who got up on the front of the raft and “rode the bull”. It was funny how he was slipping all around. So good time! Tonight Tracy took the family to dinner. It was good. Tracy and me were so tired we had to go back to the room. Good day though!

Ride the bull!
