River Rapids!

Ok, so the last two days have been poring rain. Steven and I desided to go on a little(two hours) hike. We left when it stated to rain and we finished when it was sunny out. So we headed to my cousins house whitch lives down the street and borrowed a raft but we had good news and bad news the good news was we had room for both of us and had pattles but the bad news was that it was deflated. So we spent a while blowing it up and so we got it eventally. O and a little more bad news they had used a lot already so there was a small whole where the air came out so we got there and we had to blow some of it back up. So the fun part was riding it to me it seemed like a mile down the stream it was intense. We would have kept on going but there was a natural dam buld up of trash and sticks so we had to bail in neck high, snake infested(Copper Head), turtle lurking, and Brown water that you could not see a millimeter into and so we walked back up the rushing water that was so strong until we reached the "Bank" (it's this place way down there that Steven named a while back) and we blew the boat up some more. And so now I my legs are so sore.

Well that was my wonderful storie enjoy.
