river surfing



drew has been itching for winter to end and the water levels to pick up so he can bust out his surf board again. that time has finally come, and he goes out every day to "exercise". not a bad way to spend your work break, huh? at least me and van get to come along.

there are times getting out of the house is my biggest goal for the day as a stay at home mom. this time we loaded up the vanagon with some bbq essentials and headed to horse shoe bend to check out the wave. after a 45 minute drive through the windy foothills, we reached our destination.

my wide eyed little van man watched daddy leap into the cold rushing river like a champ. i can't help but wonder what it will be like when he is old enough to try- dressed in his wetsuit from head to toe. as long as daddy is there to catch him when he falls, i will be cheering him on from the riverside.

    1. no, he stands up just like regular surfing! you can body board on river waves too tho. it's just different since the wave isn't really moving like ocean waves.
