Tubing on the Guadalupe

 In my opinion, one of the best ways to spend a hot summer day is tubing on the river with a bunch of awesome people.
 That's just what we did yeaterday.  We had 19 people in our group, mostly teenagers, and we spent a lazy day in the very cold water of the Guadalupe just below Canyon Lake.  There is an area where the river makes a horseshoe.  It takes about 2 hours to float the horseshoe and then you can get out and do it again. Which we did.
 Alan wasn't going to go, but he decided the night before that he would go with us.  I'm so glad he did. 
 Here's all the kids.  I can't call them kids much longer.  Some of the guys are 18 already.
 Why didn't someone tell me to take off the hat for the picture?  Did I look that ridiculous all day?
 Katie and one of her best friends, Hannah. I don't know what's up with Armor.
 There was a rope swing that came out over the water and of course they had to try it. 
We ended the day by eating at the Gristmill in Gruene.  That is one of the coolest restaurants to eat at.  Of course, we were so hungry by then that it didn't really matter.  This picture was taken inside Gruene Hall, the oldest dance hall in Texas.  Isn't that where you are supposed to take a bunch of Baptist teenagers?

  2. It's floppy. I pushed it back to see the camera. Someone should have told me to take it off. It kept me from getting burned though.
