During the Summer one of the things you must do in ashton is float the Snake River. This time however it was quite the adventure! Louie and I were floating together, In seperate tubes but we were trying to stay close to eachother by holding on to a paddle.
Well our first mistake was when we accidently got way far behind our cousins. so we were all alone. then in an area full of fast currents and big rocks louie accidently let go of the paddle and we were flung in different directions. Me into a beaver's den, and louie off down the river. well as i was stuck in the beavers dam i had no idea how i was going to catch up to my little sister who was quickly floating out of sight. so i said a quick prayer of help. at that time a large raft came down the river, i yelled help and they quickly asked what was the matter. i yelled, "My little sister! My little sister! she's all alone, please catch up to her!" well they sped off while i was still stuck in the Beaver's dam. after prying a stick off the dam i pushed myself away from the bank and prayed that louie was safe up ahead of me. after turing about 3 bends she finally came into sight safe in the arms of one of the rafters. it was so scary! but i know we were watched out for, and it makes a really good story! LOL
