Tuesday by Will Rainey

Today I’m going to tell you about my Tuesday. I started the day with a good morning from Becca and then got dressed and headed outside to the field for the morning activity. We played a fun game where we paired up and one person put on a blindfold while there partner guided them to a tree. The blindfolded person had to feel the tree, get to know it, and then be led back to the starting point by a different route. Once the blindfold came off they had to try and find there tree again. After the activity we had breakfast. I ate four eggs, a kiwi, and two slices of toast. The eggs were sunny side up with crispy bottoms and perfectly runny yolks which made the meal delicious. After that we had a meeting in the Thunderdome to go over the plan for the day. Then we hit the water, did a warm up, and headed to McCoy’s Rapid where we ran the thread the needle line backwards which was a blast. After that we surfed for a while and the did some flatwater practice where I landed my first flatwater loop. Next we stopped for lunch and then worked on rescuing each other out of a hole. It was cold but fun. After that I went to surf Push Button where I learned how to do a space godzilla and an entry move. Then I we arrived at chopping block where I finally made the ferry of destiny. Below that I threw some macho moves which were super fun. Then it was on to Colosseum where I got a tomahawk that I was really happy about. We wrapped things up at Black’s where I threw some big loops. After an awesome day on the river we got back and made cookies. At first we thought they were a disaster. They looked like one giant blob, the edges were burnt, and we were not sure they would be edible. But they turned out great! They came out gooey and delicious. After baking we sat down to eat burritos which were also fantastic. Then we finished the night by trying the cookies which everyone ended up loving. And that brings me to right now where I’m writing this blog. Thanks!
