Rollin' On The River

On Friday we got a call from my sister saying that her, my dad, his girlfriend Stephanie, and her daughter C.C. were going to come up. We thought that it would be fun to go tubing down the Truckee River. We met them in Tahoe City on Saturday morning and headed off on our water journey. There was plenty of cold water, hot sun, and just plain relaxing to go around. It took us about 3 1/2 hours to get from Tahoe City to River Ranch. Overall the ride was calm, except for the occasional water gun attack or beer bong crowd. The last 100 yards or so were a little rough for our lazy river tubes. We had one tube lose its battle with the rocks and of few of us ended up with some battle scars, but it was worth it. Ginger lost her sandals and tank top in the chaos, so we headed to the Tahoe City Porter's to get her some new gear. It was a great time. There are five tubes left, just waiting to get in the water again.
