Girls home from their rapids trip....they had fun!!!

Well, I was told that I should put an unflattering picture of Kristi on the site now....I will find one and make sure she gets her day in the light.....

The girls got home today and said that they had a ton of fun...I will post some pictures as soon as I get them....they said that the rapids were good...not wild, but nice...actually, Kati said that the rapids in Moab are much funner, but that they did have a great time. They were in 5 man rafts and a friend of theirs, Emily, brought her fiance with her...he is a somewhat of an expert on the rapids, goes every year, so he knew what to do...

They had a somewhat scary drive to their camp spot friday night....they didn't leave here until 5pm, so they were driving in the mountains at night...if any of you heard, Kristi hit a deer last year here in West Valley on 5600 west...it was very traumatic...she had eye contact with the deer before hitting it...it did some real damage to the front end of her car and probably died as well...she didn't know for sure, it got up and wobbled off into the field...the policeman went looking for it...anyway, she doesn't drive in the mountains at night anymore, but friday night had too....Kati said Kristi was terrified, and could see that there were deer off the side of the road....everybody in the car was watching out for her...THEN, they were following one of their leaders ahead of them, they said that they could see something on the road.. and all of a sudden their leader slammed on his brakes....there were 2 elk chilling in the middle of the street...as described...they were GINORMOUS.....then, Kristi really didn't like the drive, she did ok though, and maybe needed to do this...you know, "get back on the horse" so to speak...they got to their camping spot safely...and the trip was tons of fun....pictures to come.................
