Vacation Part 3

August 15th
At Hunter's request, today we went white water rafting in Taos, NM, on the Rio Grande. It was awesome. The water level wasn't too bad and we got some Class 3 rapids. Hunter wants to go back in May or June (however, I think the water level will be too much for him to be able to go on then). Yeah, he's hooked. And he did great. Our river guide, Jake at Far Flung Adventures, was so excellent and worked with Hunter so well.

Yeah, Scott and I will want to go back and try some more adventurous rapids for more adrenaline rush!

Cool Weather!

I am heading north. I'm tired of the heat and I'm leaving. Well, temporarily. My niece is getting married on Friday (she wanted her date to be 08/08/08) outside of Amarillo. No, it's not really any cooler than it is here in our part of Texas, but it's a dry heat. You can cool off in a breeze under a shade in dry heat - sorta. I don't know, once it gets over high 90's, it doesn't really matter if it's a dry or humid heat. It's just hot!

Anyway, Scott is planning on meeting us in a few days to go on up to my parent's cabin in Northern New Mexico - in the mountains. I just checked the weather there: Highs in the 70's Lows in the 40's. YES!!!!!

Now, I have to try to dig out cool weather clothes for us. You know, it's always something, isn't it.

Keep cool,
Lori
