Why I like water
August 16th, 2008 Posted in Raves
First, I don’t know. Honestly. I’ve thought about this a lot and I’ve got to believe there is more to it than just the standard descriptive terms (wet, refreshing, cool, etc.). I mean, we all have fun in water, but I’m literally drawn to water.
I love oceans and lakes and rivers and pools and waterfalls and puddles. I love getting in them, I like being next to them, I like looking at them. They calm me, they give me energy, they make me smile.
Luckily, I married a girl that also likes them about as much as I do. We take just about every opportunity we can to pack up the car and head to water.
The embedded video is just one example of the stuff I like to do. It’s a flume carrying irrigation water across a road in Southern Idaho. I thought I’d take my family to it, and jump in.

Okay, sooo cool Bevan! What was that about the rope and “falling over the edge”? Is it like Georgetown falls where you need to grab the rope or you die? Have you been to the natural waterslides at Georgetown Falls? I know Fenton loved it when he was in NorCal…

For a guy who hates “inside”, you spend a lot of time inside! Nice website built inside, by the way.
What do you think of The Mantage? I’ve seen it a hundred times and still can’t get enough.
