My Dad took my brother and I on a white water rafting trip down the Youghoigheny River in Pennsylvania.

This was my first time white water rafting and the part of the Youghiogheny we were on had class 3 and 4 rapids.

We had a good time… Well, I had a good time. But my idea of a good time is getting tossed out of the boat a few times. I don’t think my dad and brother shared that same definition.

Here’s the spot where we got tossed out the first time. It was called Railroad Rapids or something like that. It was the first set of class 4 rapids on the river. We hit a rock and it tossed 3 of us out.

Here’s my dad (left) and Mike (right). Mike had never met us before this trip. Mike ended up pulling us all back in the boat a few times. We’re glad Mike was there.

Here’s my brother after successfully making through a set of rapids.

We are getting ready to go into the Double Hydraulics. They had pretty much guaranteed that you would loose 2 people in this. We all made it out.
