Ginnie Springs, 9/20-9/21/08

I know I've been slacking! I've been super busy lately and I do have a lot to post and catch everyone up on. The camping crew got together this weekend at Ginnie Springs, out in High Springs, FL. The 2 hour drive was well worth it. We had tons of fun tubing down the Santa Fe river, exploring the woods and the springs, hanging out at the camp, and enjoying each other's company. The rain held off for the most part and the water was darker than usual in the river, but the springs were clear and blue like usual. I can't wait to go back again when the river clears up. My friend Jess even bought a snorkel mask with a built-in digital camera and digital video camera! I can't wait to see her photos and video of everyone jumping from the rope swings and out of the jumping tree! There was no way I was going to float down the river with the 30D so unfortunately I missed capturing those moments!
