I have no idea how to tell you how funny today was. I laughed and laughed!
Kara and Lisa and I floated the river.
Kara was having a Princess Complex and had to recline languidly across the boat whilst Lisa and I rowed. I offered to feed her grapes, only we didn't have any. She didn't want to get wet, or cold, or have to work hard. That would be icky.
Kara did ask us at one point, "Should I oar?"
Lisa and I rolled our eyes. "Oar" is not a verb.
Lisa was very serious about safety, and wore her life jacket. She kept her cell phone close in case of emergency. It was wrapped in 5 (or was it 6?) little zip-lock bags and stuffed down in her cleavage. . I don't think she could have answered it if it actually rang.
Jenine was supposed to come, only she didn't. I don't know why. Were were you, Jenine?
I don't know what was so funny. Kara kept welling up with laughter about the slightest things. That, in itself, was very amusing!
Before we got in to the river, when we were filling the boat with air...Lisa was talking to us...then the strangest thing happened! Lisa began to run.
Away from us.
Fast.
Kara started laughing, "what is she doing?"
I started laughing, too. "Jogging, seems to me."
Kara said, "Do you think she might not ever come back?"
I shrugged.
She did come back after a bit.
Walking.
So off we went.
Kara sat in the boat on an air mattress
and on the inflatable boat -seat-thingy
and on a life jacket.
In all, I think she was four feet above river level.
Me and Lisa "oar-ed."
We had a very fun time....
If you haven't ever floated down the Boise River, You HAVE GOT to try it!

I don't have a Boise River near me. Would Wildcat Creek work? No? Well then, I'll just have to wait.
Laughter is very good for us. I love to laugh.
I had to run back to the van to fetch the "very-baggied" cell phone in case of emergency. I had forgotten it, and we were behind schedule!!!
Lots of fun, ladies! We must do it again!
So glad you had such a fun time, Kel. Wish I could have been there. I for certain would never have taken off jogging. But I may have wanted to bring my cell phone along... just in case we capsized or something. Then I could call... who? The Coast Guard, maybe.
