Over the weekend, Jesse and I went on an air boat trip with some friends. We had such a great time! We got to go boating on a beautiful river, watch the races and get away for a while :)
We got there on Friday and set up camp. That afternoon we took a nice long boat ride. It was so cool to be on a different river. Our river is much more narrow (and very shallow right now!) compared to the Loup River. The boat ride was great, but the storm that night wasn't! We ended up sleeping in the truck since our tent was trying to blow in on us!
But Saturday was beautiful again. The sun was shining and our stuff all dried out in no time. Saturday was the start of the races. It's so cool to see the boats all lined up! All the different paint jobs, graphics and setups are so cool to see!
I even found my dream boat :)
Sunday we went boating again for a while. We actually missed the races on Sunday because we were out doing our own thing and we wanted to get home at a descent time that night. But it worked out great. It was a nice relaxing weekend and we're already planning our trip for next year!
I'll be catching up with blog posts that I missed over the weekend. And I'll do a double dose of Treasury Thanks on Sunday since I missed it this past weekend!
Looks like fun to me!! Shame about the storm though :)

Looks like you had a fabulous time - well, except for the storm at night. The boat with the pink/aqua seats is pretty cool :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a lot more fun than we had moving.
ReplyDeleteHahaha, you totally would find the only pink boat. :-) Looks like you guys had a great time!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! You deserved a break.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun time! Maybe Jesse will make his boat pink and blue! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great trip!! I bet it was nice to get away for a bit:)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great weekend. I got to ride in an airboat a few years ago and it was so much fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you had such a good trip and that the weather held for the most part! It sounds like a neat experience.
ReplyDeleteHow fun!! I love the colors of that boat seat!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a fun trip Edi! What a perfect way to spend time with friends in the summer!
ReplyDeleteI can see why that's your dream boat! You'd have to make a pink Budweiser sign though!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like it was such fun! How fast do air boats go?
ReplyDeletethat looks like a lot of fun! I'm sure you had fun. Hope you all didn't hurt your backs, sleeping in the truck - the giant truck, right? I think I would have felt safer, esp. with lightning! {:-D
ReplyDeleteLooks fun! I'm off to get a map and see where the Loup River is!
