Mancation

Last Saturday's rain didn't stop Dan from spending a day on the Clackamas River...and when I say on the river, I mean right on the river, floating on top! As a kid, he grew up right next to the Salmon river. He and his brothers used to ride inner tubes down the river during the summer. Just recently he discovered extreme white water river boarding. Basically you lay on a river board and go down the river on you belly. Sound fun? Here are some great shots of Dan and his brother Dylan on their Mancation (vacation for the manly-man).

Getting ready to put in the river boards.

Dylan getting his flippers on.

Here's Dan navigating the Clackamas River.

Over a rapid...


...down the river they go!



Here they are at the end of their journey.
