This is the last morning on the river. Enjoy the view from our raft. The Grand Canyon is my favorite place in the whole world. I have been to the top and have hiked rim to rim. But, this view was different. I took a group of young boy scouts on this particular trip and they all believe that I am the biggest chicken there is. I rode in the chicken coop almost the entire time! But, I had the greatest time and watched these young men grow to be more self-reliate and mature on this trip. On the last day, (when I was sure that we had no more rapids to go through), I agreed to ride upfront with them! They were excited and they seem to take great pleasure in getting me to "push" myself to do more than I may admit to be willing to do. That is the best part, I am really not a chicken and have been looking forward to this trip for years! But, they think that they have won by getting me to accept and move past my "fears". Huh, a little reverse psychology? Anyway the boys have "pushed" me to try new things and each and every one of them has bragged about the trip and how wonderful it was. I will definatley have to plan another trip!!! This was definately a wonderful success!!!!
