We woke up around 7:45 to get ready to go rafting.  We were supposed to pick up beers last night, but didn’t, and drank all that we had left.  Luckily in Montana you can buy beer just about anywhere and its dirt cheap.  So we picked up a few 30s for the rafting trip; they told us to bring some beers, so 60 beers for 6 of us might have been a little overkill, but we can always share…  If we get too drunk, we can always just walk back to the RV, or hitchhike, so we should be fine; as long as we don’t drown.  They provide us lunch, so at least we didn’t have to worry about that.

We used Wild West Rafting, and when we got there, we donned our wetsuits and got ready to go.  They asked if we brought any beverages, and they were shocked to see us with (2) 30s.  (Banquets of course!  BTW, that means Coors Original…)  They told us we couldn’t bring them on the first part of the trip because it was too technical, so we pregamed in the parking lot for a bit and got a little sauced up.  The water was really cold, so cold we had to wear wetsuits, so we needed a little something to keep us warm (Yes, Mom – I know it wont really keep me warm and will in fact make me prone to hypothermia).
