While we were staying at Laura's home, we talked about going tubing. WHAT?

I think this was Sunday afternoon when we pulled into this place. Hey it was only 20 minutes away. Nice place, nothing out standing, but a bed and a place to relax.

Got up early and left for our adventure.

We were told by others to get there early (8am) before the crowds. Really was kinda of quite when we arrived.

i think we spent around $28.00 for the tubes and the tram. To get into the park it cost only $6.00

So for this whole day it cost only $34.00.

Not sure who this is, but I know they had a hard time getting into the tube. The reason I say that is, there is a platform you stand and you are about 10 inches above the water. So Jeanne and I held each other tubes and we jumped backwards into the tube. The water is 72 deg. But it was still very cooled for me.

Yes this is I. I gave Jeanne the phone to just take a couple of pictures.

This is a dragonfly, on her leg. He or she became Jeanne friend for the ride. It landed on her threw out the whole ride down the river.

You can see how relax I was, just floating down the river with nothing to worry about, until you get close to the shore.

Then objects in the middle of the river you can run into.

I think this was the spot where there was a baby raccoon on the shore cleaning his of her food off.

I thin this is a another dragonfly she became friends with.

I think this is where there was a family of turtles, sunbathing.

After about 1 hour and half (1 1/2) we come to the end of the ride. Then climb out and stand in line to get on the tram and ride back up river and do it again. We did it three (3) times.

I guess during normal times, They use this for thier waiting area. Now with this COVID -19 thing are chancing all over the world. It really is a sad time for all that is going on.
