White Salmon Rafting

We went rafting on the White Salmon - I'll post pictures later. But I fell out going over the waterfall - so I spent the rest of the weekend recovering.

We've done this before and it's always a lot of fun. But today I'm limping around. Guess I'm getting a little old to be rafting over waterfalls.

Here's a short clip of the tour we took with All Star Rafting.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.
