AHG Whitewater Trip

 I am proud of my girls for this real high adventure trip.  They made the boys jealous, as they were planning to go kayaking down the coosa river on this day, but they cancelled their trip due to thunderstorms.  But not these girls!  Magan drove over to the Baileys, and let Ruby spend the day with Savannah, while Elizabeth drove Magan, Sarah Beth, and Belle down to Columbus Ga for this white water extravaganza.  

The AHG had a large group of girls that went on this trip, but also only limited it to the Explorers and up.  Anabelle's crew was captained by a guy that went by the name of "Waffle", and apparently he had a brother that also captained one of these rafts, and his name was "Draino".  Well, Waffle kept our crew safe and they never flipped through any of the rapids.  Magan said that both Belle and Sarah Beth could NOT stop giggling at one rapid where they "surfed" the rapid with water continuously splashing into the front of the boat.  Only one of the AHG boats flipped, and my understanding was that Melissa Amacher was trapped under the boat giving her a little fright, but ok after a while.  

And we did not capture photo evidence, as I would have loved to have seen, but Anabelle jumped off a 10 foot cliff down into the water several times.  Magan texted me this later that evening when she had her phone back and I was so surprised.  I replied that I bet her momma didn't do it, and NOPE, there is no way magan would have ever done that.  

The girls had some fun on the way home with a huge restaurant takeover for the AHG supper, but apparently they had no idea how to give out the checks which led to some very frustrated AHG folks waiting THIRTY minutes to pay for their meal.  Ugh, then outside, Magan said they had parked next to a sketchy car and driver, and with the other girls engaged in some discussions, Magan was able to feel the spidey sense and get Elizabeth to get in the car, and get them out of there.  Then at a coffee shop stop on the way home, they encountered a sketchy lady talking to Sarah Beth, and again they sped out of there.  I asked Magan to write these stories up, but well that aint ever gonna happen...so if you want the deets on these stories, ya gotta ask her.
