A couple of Saturdays ago, we went on a float trip with my sister, Catherine, and her husband, John. Instead of renting rafts and everything from a rafting company, we thought it would be fun to buy our own rafts. Catherine always comes over on Fridays and goes grocery shopping with us. That Friday we took a trip to Dicks Sporting Goods. We found a four man raft on sale for 24.95. We also got a two man raft that was on sale for 12.95. We got both rafts for close to the cost of the rental of one person. We got ores and life jackets at Cabella's. Catherine looked up places to put in. It all worked out despite some of the questions Mom and Dad might have had. :) Overall we took a 6.8 mile float (according to Google maps). It was a great day!!
Notice the life jackets didn't last long! :)
