We went to Holter Lake one last time before summer ends. We took the boat out and did some tubing and went down through Gates of the Mountains. We camped overnight (it was freezing!) and had a lot of fun. We made some s'mores (thanks, Kristen - we had such a good system going!) that night and sat around the fire. We had a lot of fun, almost died on the inner tube while Mario pulled us at about 50 mph across that lake, and did a lot of VERY COLD swimming. Ben loved the water, surprisingly. We let the kids play together, which they love to do. Oh, and we watched people jump off very high rocks into the lake (it was all very entertaining). We got a good laugh at Jeff the next morning because he was frozen and went to collect what we thought was "just a few pieces of wood" only to see him come back with a truck full of it - classic! Jeff was great entertainment, falling off the boat once and almost falling off a 2nd time! Thanks Brandy for taking all the GREAT pictures!
Brandy got this one just as Ben was ready to go in the frigid water (while she was holding him on the back of the boat!)

Ok, this isn't what we thought it would be! At this point, we were holding on for dear life!!
Ok, now we're just trying to LIVE through this adventure!! This is where we almost flipped
We're laughing, so I guess we were having fun!

I love the pictures! The ones of us on the tube are so funny. Ben and I laughed so hard when we saw them. That was such a good time.
