This July we rafted down the Rogue River, repeating a trip we first took in 1991. The river hasn't changed very much, but we have. This was our family then, just before the river trip.

There was a lot of rock jumping this trip starting with a stop at McCloud Falls on the way to the Rogue.

Sadly I discovered after the first day that my waterproof camera is not water proof if you don't close the battery hatch tightly. The camera survived but most of my pictures after the first day are kind of fogged.
The first day had a big rapid that all the people in the paddle rafts had to walk around but Toby and Calvin were in the "Duckies" so they got to navigate the fish ladder around the falls.

My big adventure was when Calvin and I were riding on the big oar boat and we got stuck on a rock in the middle of a big rapid. WE managed to finally get off the rock without tipping and then promptly got stuck on the next rock in the rapid.
