This past thursday we traveled with our daughter Brynne and grandson Cade to Riggins, Idaho. We met up with her hubby Jon and his dad, Bruce Erickson at Short bar on the Salmon River to do a couple of days rafting. My brother in law Scott Davis and Blair had some rafts on the river with boy venturer groups from his ward and stake. . The river was low but still full of fun and excitement. A few flips and big rapids and suddenly Steve is planning another extended river float on the Salmon for next summer. We have done them in the past so he is remembering the great times we have had with all our kids and wanting to re-enact them. We will see! I had given up on rafting a couple of years ago.
Brynne was baptised here at this spot when she was 8 years old by her brother Tom who had just returned from his mission.Now she is teaching her son to swim in the same river.
We also did some blackberry picking , visit to the fish hatchery, elk farm spotting, and sitting in camp with cribbage and root beer.

Wow, you guys sure have camped a lot this summer. It is so cool that Brynne was baptized there. Looks like fun as always.
And no, my mom doesn't have a blog yet, I'm trying to talk both her and my sister into starting one. Ben's wife started a blog, you can click on their link (Ben & Alisha) from my website.
I have loved reading your family updates and Spike's letters.
