Rafting the Green

OK, I know...  We went rafting in AUGUST and I am just posting it now... (My shoulders hunch and I lower my head in SHAME!  Ok, all better, let's get on with it.)

  • Ben's first time rafting (Maissie & Jensyn's too if I am correct, which I am - sometimes)  
  • Rafting the Green River is a Lemon Family Tradition Thing.  I remember floating down "The RIVER" with my Grandma & Grandpa Jensen, (G.J. had the best rafting hat) Uncle Curt (who isn't really my uncle, he's my cousin, but I remember him as Uncle Curt; weird!), ALL of my friends, a scout troop, lots and lots of cousins, & even my In-laws who can't swim and fear water.  

Unfortunately Mario didn't make it this trip, but the rest of us had fun. (BTW- Thanks Jess for watching Sofi...  YOU ROCK!)

Everyone is all smiles because we just left and no one is wet :)



Ben: What's A "Twinkie Killer?"  
Someone fell on the wet bag during a rapid and smashed the Twinkies inside, so Mark called the rapid the "Twinkie Killer."  From then on, rapids were no longer "Wabits," but Twinkies.  They remain Twinkies to this day...  Next time we go, we'll have to try and explain again, or not.
