White water rafting

Well the for my trip is getting close and I must say I cant wait. I went last year down the upper gully and it was a blast. I spent the weekend looking for my rafting shoes that used last year. Ya you are all right, I could not find them. So might have to buy some new ones. Any ways Ill get some more pictures up and keep you all updated as I get closer to going on my trip.

THE GREAT HURRICANE

Well last year Ohio had a hurricane. Our house had some damage in which I am still fighting with the insurance company. Funny how you send them money every month, in case some thing happens. Then when some thing does happen, guess what. They dont want to pay to fix it. Its like a scam. Well any ways we had a tree fall down and almost hit our house. We had part of the tree fall into the roof, so the roof is wasted. Siding rip off the house. And to boot we were with out power for 4 days. So all of the food we had in the fridge was bad. On a brighter note no one killed or hurt. So here are a few pictures of the Hurricane of 2008. Hope I never have to deal with any thing like this again.

WHERE IS MY GREEN BEER

Happy ST Patrick's day. I know I posted this picture before. But it is so funny. My dog is really into his ears. You have to watch out if you have a beer. If you were to sent your beer down, he would drink it. Why do dogs like beer? After 13 years I know why they call a dog mans best freind. He is my best friend. So I would like to wish every one a Happy St. Patrick's and for everyone to be safe.

BACK YARD CAMPING

So how many people have done this before. You know you want to go camping, its a nice day out and the night should be just as nice. But you really dont feel like packing up the car and driving an hour. Then once you get there you have to unpack the car, set up your site ect. I mean dont get me wrong, I like to camp and do all of that but there is times when I just want to set up camp and kick back with a cold one. Back yard camping can be just as fun as going to a camp site. Plus the next the day all you have to do is walk to the back door and your home.

HOUSE ON FIRE

Well yesterday I was woke up to fire trucks out side of my house. So I got up to see what was going on. Well the house two doors down was on fire. The water heater had a short in it which caused a electric fire. These fire fighters tore this house up. They cut holes in the roof, pulled down all of the dry wall. No one was hurt, thank god.

The Great Falls

Well I Have to say I liked this water fall a lot better than the other. The reason for that is, it was only a 2 mile walk one way to get to these falls. I never knew how many water falls there were in the smokys till we went there. A person could spend all week hiking in the woods looking at water falls. I must say they are kinda cool and I would go back again. I wounder what kind of falls Ill run into on the white water rafting trip that I am going on.

The water fall

Ok I found the picture of the water fall from when we were down in the Smokys. This picture will make you turn your head. We had to walk three miles one way to see it. Looking back, it was worth it. At the time I was thinking to my self, why in the hell am I walking up and down all these hills to see some water fall. Like you seen one you seen them all right. But it was not the water fall that made the walk so cool, it was all of the people we meet along the way. And one bear that we saw. Would I walk six miles again to see some water fall in the great smokys. Humm well in a heart beat. So I hope you like this picture.

White water rafting at the gorge

Ok well we just booked a trip the Gorge. We will down in Virginia for three days. We booked the trip through Rivermen. We have been on a trip with them once before and had a blast. So this trip back down to the gorge should be just as fun. We are going to be down there in July so the weather should be warm lol. If you have not be rafting in Virginia then you should make a date to go to the gorge. Even if you are not in to white water rafting, you should still go down to the gorge in Virginia just to take in the sites. Also they have a thing called bridge day. It were people base jump from the bridge. Its the crazyest thing I have ever seen. So make a date, plan a trip and go and check it out. I will have pictures from the trip on here in July. In the mean time I will try to find some pictures of the last trip we went on and have up in a few.

Polor bear

This bear is from the Cincinnati Zoo. Every time we go down there I like to check him out. He is the biggiest one out of the four bears that are down there. The Cincinnati Zoo is one of the best zoo that I have been to. The zoo has lots of cool animals. The best time to see this bear is feeding time. This beat can eat. So if you are ever in Cincinnati you should stop in. Its worth every penny.

This is a really cool water fountain that is at the Navy Pier. I am not to sure who had more fun, the kids or the grown ups. We must have spent like an hour watching the water go from pond to pond. If you were ever looking for a fun place to spend a day, well this would be the place to go. There is a ton of things to do there and its not very expensive.
