I returned from Jackson, Wyoming this afternoon. I went camping and river rafting with the Brighton 9th YSA ward! It was so fun! I knew two or three people going, so it was kind of out of my comfort zone, but everyone was awesome and helped me to feel so welcome! I slept in a tent with six other girls...there were 31 people total. I made several new friends and I am excited to build those friendships. On the raft, I started out in the middle because I was afraid to paddle....I seriously thought I'd fall off the side. After the last large rapid (Lunch Counter), I switched places with someone and paddled the last mile or two. We rafted an 8 mile stretch of the Snake River! Since I am not paying almost $30 for a river rafting picture, the link to the website that has all eight of the pictures taken of the boat I was on is below. It was taken at Lunch Counter, where we went through about 5 "waves." The river was really high and pretty rough, it was a blast. There might be more pictures coming....one of the girls brought a camera on the boat and will be emailing us some as soon as the pictures are developed. If you have not gone river rafting, you need to go!!!!
