Saturday me and some friends went Salt River Tubing. Good times were had, even though the sun never came out from behind the clouds and we were shivering for a good portion of the trip. We spent a little over five hours floating downstream, and and it positively flew by. Talk about a wild bunch of folks out there. There were marshmallow wars, people with water guns, floating barbecue shacks, and a whole lot of drunk people.
Personally I was probably in the water as often as I was on my tube. Something about being around water just makes me want to swim. So I played Mr. Tugboat for our group, trying to keep us away from trees and away from the shallows. It didn’t always work out, and I’ve got a few nice bruises to show for it. Talk about some good exercise though! I haven’t been this sore in a long time.
We are hoping to make the trip again later in the summer, when it might be a little warmer.
^ Like a retarded fish to water ^

Love your grin. :) I'm a water baby too. Love swimming so much.
Glad you had a nice time!
Melissa - Yeah, I had every intention of being a lazy bum and chilling on the tube the whole trip. That lasted all of 30 minutes. :)
In all my years in Az I've never actually been tubing...Something about the way the sun reacts with my skin...I'm like an Irish lobster to water...
Sadira - That's why god made SPF 75! Enough layers of that and the sun doesn't stand a chance. :) I was totally expecting to get burned, but I think I ended up whiter than when we started.
