Finishing up day three of our Oregon vacation after United Airlines finally got us here!
Wednesday we had a great day on the Rogue river rafting. Things were going to be pretty wet, and the guide advised us not to take any electronics with us, but Jessica got a few pics with her phone that she had a zip lock bag. Today we did a jet boat tour up Hellgate canyon, and it was also a bit wet, but again, Jess came through with her phone. She's going to forward them to my Gmail so I ca post some pics when I get home. Presuming United Friggin' Airlines gets us home again. It's been a real trip in the total lack of customer service that some businesses have today. But we're having fun, and I hope to have some pics to share with you. Haven't really needed a knife much yet, but it was a comfort to have one in my pocket again when I got here.
Maybe it was a good idea not to have one on me Monday when they told us we were not getting out of D.C that day!:grumpy:

See what a good time you're having? Dispute the CC charges when you get home for UA and forget about it.

Congrats Paul! We just celebrated my only nephew's 7th birthday 10 days ago.
Katie and I spent yesterday at the Headlands Beach state park at Lake Erie in celebration of our 6th wedding anniversary. We had a wonderful time walking in the surf, fishing a bit, and getting sunburned. We went to a seafood restaurant for dinner and had a fine meal, although Katie shied away from the seafood because of the pregnancy. She had a wonderful looking steak and I went for the crabcakes. It was a wonderful day, spend with a wonderful woman.
