August 30, 2016 Perfect Day for a Boat Ride

Today's adventure was outdoors.  It was a perfect 75 degrees!  But on the water there was lots of wind!


We enjoyed a twp-hour ride on the red jet boat.  Chris was the Captain.  Mildred was in the teal headband; and Evelyn was in the gray headband.

 Here's our RV park from the Klamath River Jet Boat ride.

It was a beautiful day on the river.

 The leaves are beginning to change colors. 
The boat on the right is a wooden boat, called a dug-out.  There were several boats/fishermen on the river hoping to catch some salmon.

 The family group was seated in the last two rows--called the wet section for a reason! Gayla, Glen, Marcella, Jeff; Gary, Evelyn, Mildred, Doug.
Captain Chris calls out "hold on.  Here we go!"  It was time for a 360-degree turn on the river!  Basically, a "donut" on the water with the boat.  Yes--it slung water up into the boat.

There wasn't an abundance of wildlife, but we did see a golden eagle, a bald eagle, common merganser, great blue heron, black oystercatcher, great egret, gulls, brown pelican, seals.

More planned for tomorrow--of course!
