Today was the day designated as the white water rafting day on the Arkansas river. There were a few newbies to rafting but overall I think everyone was looking forward to the afternoon of rafting. We decided to raft The Numbers (advanced class level III-V) so it would provide plenty of excitement for the newbies and oldies alike. The weather decided to be a little odd today as it rained the entire drive to the rafting spot, stopped only long enough for us to get excited about rafting and of course just as we were loading up on the bus it started to pour. Just as everyone dressed the rain came pouring down which made it cold quickly! So everyone was geared up in a wet suit, splash guard and helmet. Sadly I didn't get any group pics as I failed to bring a waterproof camera! Rats I know as we were looking pretty hot and smelled even better! After all of our work to get the wet suits on the sun came out just as we loaded onto the rafts, which we were not complaining about since it was nice to raft with the sun instead of the rain!
After a fun time rafting we headed back to the condo only to be greeted by a delicious meal prepared by Nicole. Nothing like coming home to a mexican spread! A perk of Keystone is the free yes free shuttle, we took advantage of this great service. So after an amazing meal we loaded up on the bus and headed out to Snake River Tavern for their weekly live music and local entertainment.

I don't think I will ever forget the rafting trip we took when we had to take the swimming test before we went. Very proud of you...and look...now you're a seasoned pro. ;) Makes me want to head back to CO real soon.
