Jimmie and I love love love the water so we decided to buy a raft! Originally, we were thinking paddleboards then realized we could do a whole lot more adventuring if we are able to take stuff like food and our phones with us. I happened upon a raft on clearance while I was wandering around Walmart...I know I know one of the things we should NOT do BUT I wouldn't have seen this raft otherwise so...
Anyway, we took it out for the first time last weekend and just as we finished blowing it up, it rains! And I don't mean sprinkling I mean pouring rain with thunder and lightning!! Sigh. We looked at our weather app and it said the rain was only supposed to last an hour. Being that it's Colorado aka unpredictable but at the same time bad weather doesn't last long, we waited. Wound up waiting a little over an hour but the rain finally stopped and the sun came out a little bit so we took it out on the water.
It was really peaceful since not many people were there. The water was frreeeezziinnngg! Thank goodness we hadn't gone to the lake for swimming. We hopped into the raft with our snack bounty of chips and candy. 💓
A couple weekends ago, we went paddle boarding in Horsetooth near Fort Collins. SO HOT and SO CROWDED there but we had fun. Gorgeous views of the mountains as well.
Paddle boarding!
