Boatin'

Part of the movie River Wild was taped here on Rogue River, Hell's Canyon.

Saturday we went on a Jet Boat Excursion on Rogue River with our friends from the local pub. It was fun. The boat runs on 4-6 inches of water. It was a 4 hour boat ride which included dinner and all you could drink.

Our friend Carrie was in town to visit. We had a busy week. Carrie also has a friend,Kristin, that lives in Portland. So we went up to Portland and checked out the town....Saturday Market, Body Worlds, Silver Falls State Park, and the local bars. Then the three girls drove to the coast. The weather was beautiful and the seafood was delicious. We had a great week and glad to see a hometown girl.
