About half of us slipped on the rocks and ended up wet. My cellphone was in my back left pocket, fortunately I fell to the right and crisis was averted. (Note to self: Don't take your cellphone in the river). We saw a water moccasin swimming along the bank opposite of where we were in the water. He stayed a good distance away and I'm sure he was alone.
We enjoyed exploring and hanging out. Caleb ate some mud and found a stick to play with. Lily Anne enjoyed sitting on a big rock. Travis struck out ahead and found the "Mother Lode" of dino tracks.
The date on the camera was set wrong so I cropped it out of most of the pics, I couldn't crop it out of all of them. It really was 05/14/2013.
Doug worked all day except when he was at the river with us, taking several conference calls, emails, and projects. It was a productive day for him. I still need to unpack, clean and organize in the RV, but that will come.
Our evening was spent in sweet fellowship over a delicious dinner on a family farm with our friends The Millers who have left the suburbs and gone country! What a wonderful way to begin our Great Adventure!
Are you going to be able to float down the river or is it too low? Did you find the swim area? I hope you guys have a great time there! We loved it! Also, I forgot to mention that my children loved the park ranger talks at the amphitheatre. Especially the night ones!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty low, but we have been swimming and seen tracks. What a great park!
