Birthday Gift

As an unusual birthday gift, Martha presented me with a whitewater rafting trip down the Shenandoah & Potomac rivers....for the whole family; including Jamie. It was a simple drive out to Harper's Ferry and a bus ride to a launch point. Fortunately it was a beautiful day. With helmets and paddles the six of us were joined by a guide who told us when and how to paddle as zig-zagged through currents and rocks. It really wasn't all that rough or challenging. The water was low and not very fast moving. Chris did fall in once, but we got him back in pretty quickly. Unfortunately, for fear of falling in we didn't get any pictures or video. Got back to Purcellville and had an increasingly rare family dinner at Mario's.
