I'm running a little behind. Last weekend we had quite the adventure. We went white water rafting on the upper youghiogheny river in pennsylvania with some friends from church. It was Michelle's first time rafting and she was quite nervous. The upper yough is the most technical class 5 rapids that are commercially run in the world. We didn't find that out until we were on the river and it was probably best Michelle didn't know until then. We had a blast! Our trip on the river included 20 class 5 rapids in a row with a drop off a 10 ft and 12 ft waterfall and a squeeze through a 4ft gap. (Note: The boat is 6ft wide. Ya, I know crazy!) In the end we all had fun. Michelle fell out once but wasn't out for long.
As if that wasn't enough excitement for one vacation, we stopped for a day at cedar point on the way home. Michelle, who is very scared of heights but loves to go fast, rode all the rides even the dragster and the Millenium Force. I was way impressed. She was quite the champ.
The trip also gave us a chance to try out our new tent and it worked great. They have made some definite improvements to camping gear since we camped as kids. We camped four nights, two in PA and two in Ohio.
I hope this doesn't sound too much like a letter from perfectville. We just had a good vacation. I love it when that happens!

For crying out loud you guys get to do all the fun stuff! I wish I was grown up and responsible. Do you have to go to college for that?
