Kayaking!

Yes! I just got back from kayaking on the New River in North Carolina. It was actually really high since we have gotten a lot of rain lately. Mariah and I had our good friend, Michaela Hall, and Maddie had her friend, Cate Hendren. We had a really nice time. We went about 10 miles and stopped a lot at watering holes and nice beaches. Although I put on a lot of sun screen before we took off, I got burnt to the crisp. Not quite the crisp but pretty burnt.
Here are some pictures of our time:These are in no specific order, so this picture was taken towards the end of the trip. This is Mariah getting out of the rapids.

Me jumping over a little thingy. we had to park half of the kayaks at one little stair case and the other half on a stair case a few yards down. Not all of our kayaks could fit in one place.
Mariah and I in the New River....it was so cold!
The current was really strong here! We did do a little bit of posing in this pic!
