my weekend

I took a final on Wednesday night, turned in my final paper Thursday morning, and left for a river rafting trip with the youth group on Thursday afternoon. We thought we planned a hard core trip where the girls could learn some real bad-to-the-bone mountain skills.



Turns out we stayed on a lovely camp ground attached to a golf course.

Slightly disheartened at the realization that they would be fighting off golf balls rather than bears, I took solace knowing what lie ahead: the river.

in my mind:

actual:



My shining moment came around midnight the first night when I was deliriously tired from pulling all-nighters two nights in a row. It was pitch black except for the golf club house (but that was a few holes away) and not realizing that the ladies in the leader's tent had zipped up the screen I did my best to walk straight through it.



I'm an idiot.

The end.

Apparently you were expecting the kind of river rafting experience we had last summer when we saw our lives pass before our eyes.

I have had a trip almost just like this- except I was smart enough not to walk into a screen door. Anyways, I am in Utah and wanted to know if I can see you anytime I am here. Do you need to drive down to SLC for anything?
