Rafting on the South Fork of the American River






Each year on the third weekend of July, we meet up with friends for a weekend of rafting on the South Fork of the American River, and do this with River Runners- one of the oldest rafting companies on the river. (click on the title bar for their website).

We have been doing this since 2001 with our friends Ernie, Christian and Linda, and each year we bring a different group of friends with us. This year it was Carl, John, Donald, Yoichi, Shance, Dennis, Patrick and Michelle. Every year Christian and Hannah get a little older (and taller) and we always have Joe Tassinari as our guide. We started doing this when Hannah was eight and now she is eleven. This year our second guide was John Kosnowski... the boys liked him alot! heh heh! I think this will be come an annual trip for most of this years "guests".
