Tubing the Salt River

My friend Marcela and her daughter Elena joined Alex and me for a day of fun in the sun.   Alex goes tubing as often as he can, but Elena had never done the trip.  Marcela and I both had done it before - but probably 20 years ago!  I packed a yummy picnic lunch and lots of bottles of water in the ice chest, and we floated downstream all afternoon, with one stop at the cliffs to watch Alex jump a few times.  Saw lots of ducks, a turkey vulture - and more than a few  drunken flotillas.  We had slathered on the sunscreen, and (so far, at least) it looks like none of us got burned.  No pix of us (we hadn't brought a camera along) but this is pretty much how we looked, except with only 4 tubes surrounding our ice chest.
