And the Animal(s) of the day are...

Today we floated down the Portage River in Grandpa's raft. The water was glacieriffic silty and freezing (meaning it was a grey muddy color and you understand the freezing part, right?!). We saw a bald eagle, a huge beaver, dall sheep (amazingly close on the ledges of the mountain side) and of course fish...and lots of mosquitos...

No moose have been sighted yet (come on, we usually see these on a daily basis walking around the neighborhood), but I will of course keep you posted.

We watched Uncle Matt in another race tonight...this time a mountain bike race. He came in first by a long shot. That boy knows everyone and man do they love and respect him. I love being introduced as his sistah. I might even give the mountain bike race a go on Friday night...
