Part of family on Mom's side (Smith/Loges) decided to go rafting on the Payette River, near Boise, Idaho. So many others couldn't make it this year, but after hearing how much fun we all had, I'm thinking they may figure out a way to do it next time. Cousins Cindy and John, from the Boise area, organized the event. They did such a nice job of it, we may elect them to do it all of the time!

| They're smiling because they are on the best raft...the one with Steve and me |
 |
| Gayle and John thought they new how to get others wet... |
 |
| We were way more aggressive! |
 |
| Of, course we got a little wet also |

 |
| The Cascade Rafting Company has a great operation |
 |
| Skinny Dipper Hot Springs...the name says it all! |
 |
| Yep...that's the road at the top center of the picture...not a trick ...it really was that steep |
 |
| This was a LOT warmer than the river |
Good morning how are you?
ReplyDeleteMy name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.
I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately it’s impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.
For all this I would ask you one small favour:
Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from British Virgin Islands? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in British Virgin Islands in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and a original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:
Emilio Fernandez Esteban
Calle Valencia, 39
28903 Getafe (Madrid)
Spain
If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com, where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.
Finally I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.
Yours Sincerely
