What was I thinking...

So this whole time we have been trying to think of free things to do with Savannah. And of course the first thing that comes to mind is tubing! All over Logan there are these canals that come off the river, and well we are lucky enough be close by one. We had started out our morning telling Savannah that we would go to the lake and then camping, but that fell through. So today I had walked Savannah back from the library and we crossed over a canal. I made mention that kids float down the canal on tubes, and of course she said she wanted to do it.Earlier today the water was cold, near freezing, but that didn't register with the 10 yr old. So as the day went on, and the idea of going swimming at the lake became a distance thought, Savannah pursued the idea of tubing. So we headed on our quest to find some cheap floating devices. With no luck after checking 3 stores, we headed back home. Then Vincent said to go to BIG O tires, because a few weeks back they had the tubes for $10.00. Well when I got there, they were all out. So I drove around to more stores to find floating devices. As I was about to give up hope I stopped at K-Mart...K-Mart didn't let me down, and I came back with 3 rafts! So the time had come to get wet. I remembered how cold the water was earlier and I tried my hardest to not go, but she wouldn't let me. So off we went, yes the water was cold, yes I was complaining the whole time, but it was totally awesome and I can't wait to do it again when the water is warmer.

  1. Sounds fun! (Sounds like it would be *more* fun with warmer water!) I'm glad Savannah is having such a great time there.
