Lazy Days of Summer

We have done so many fun things since we've moved to Arizona. Some of the fun things we've done in Arizona: we went to the World Wildlife Zoo, camping, we took a trip to the Bio-Dome, country line-dancing lessons, we visited the Grand Canyon, and now we can say that we've been down the Salt River.


This last weekend, my friend Sarah came down for a surprise visit. We had a lot of fun with her. We went out to some fun restaurants (In & Out and Toby Kieth's I Love This Bar And Grill), we went window shopping, and had our weekly training class for Tarzan. But the best part of Sarah's visit was floating down the Salt River. We bought Tarzan a life jacket so he could come too - he's such a spoiled dog!

It was so relaxing to go out on the water. The place where we went was just outside of Mesa, Arizona. We rented the tubes and got a free bus ride for our drop off and pick up. Thomas thought it would be a good idea if we tied all of our tubes together. He also thought ahead and got us an extra tube that held a cooler with bottled waters in it. Thomas is so smart!

We saw a muskrat in the water and a bunch of birds. I was surprised at all of the wildlife that was near the river. It took about 4 hours to complete the journey. We were all sunburned and tired when we were done, but it was totally worth it. I give it a 2 thumbs up!
