We had our first rain last night. Fortunately we were souvenir shopping during the torrential part of it, and our tents (even the He-man zipperless model) remained predominately dry. We had a few other brief encounters during the night and early morning, but again, we didn't seem to have any real troubles.
We need to give a couple shout-outs here:
1. Thanks again to all the people who are commenting on the blog. We have a lot of fun reading these out loud - especially anything coming out of the Myth Busters entry.
2. Thanks to Wills mom and sibs for sending the cookie care package. You can tell Will has several siblings, because he immediately shared a dozen of the cookies, then squirreled the rest away for future meals. One year during finals week, this same gal sent me a freshly baked Cherry Pie via fedex. I think even then it cost her $30 to do that, but I'm pretty sure that was the day I decided I would have to eventually marry that wonderful women.
By the way, has any blog yet mentioned that the sun comes up here at like 5:30 AM? It then proceeds to shine directly into my tent (but I think others have the same issue). Somebody should write a letter or something about that.
On to the Wallet poll, the one guy who got no votes is the one who found out if his wallet floats:

Great blog guys! Tick and Dr. Plaques Family here...
We've enjoyed every adventure from the net. Wish we would have done something like that when we were young. All we ever did was play in the mud and boogie board in a water retention ditch! Colin, I voted you as the one most likely to go over without a lifeline being thrown. (nene) Have a safe trip home. G'ma Lu, Cpa Dave, Michelle, Karen, Kevin and Nene
We know all about rafting with Will and his Dad, from our Colorado rafting adventure in 2006!
Hope they kept the shenanigans to a minimum!
