Day 3 - July 31st.

Day 3
1. have shower (now these are not always recorded and I think we showered more often than Sara has recorded. Just so you know we were clean the whole time. :o)
2. take down tent
3. on the road
4. ate at denny's (we love to eat here, and ate at a denny's quit often)
5. 950am at hills (leading into the mountains. We made a lot of stops on the way. One is at the tunnel mountains. Here are the kids in the mock tunnel.
Sitting on a pretty rock. Sara was being so nice to her sister. I love that!Being goofy and waving at the traffic. They actually got some people to wave back.Here they are skipping rocks. I dont know what the name of this rest area is, but it is beautiful there. The water is FREEZING cold. They all waded around in it anyway.Then just as we entered Golden, there were mountain goats just sitting beside the highway. They let us get pretty close. They were amazing looking. So beautiful.6. ate at greek restaurant (this was in Golden. our destination for the day)
7. Wet N' Wild Jet Boat. (This is a picture that I grabbed off their website, since I wasnt taking my camera on this very wet and wild ride. We were the only ones on the ride, so Eric, Sara and Casey sat in the very back and got SOAKED. Jada and I sat in the front since it was the safest place to have Jada. This is one awesome boat. It has 800 horsepower. It doesnt actually turn corners, it glides around them. It does 360's at the drop of a hat. Our drivers guy was awesome and took us for a great ride. IT was about 1hr 20min long. It was on the Columbian River)
