July 4 at the National Whitewater Center









After trying to come up with a plan for the 4th, we decided to head to the US National Whitewater Center for active family fun and fireworks. The whitewater center is only about 20 minutes from our home but this was our first visit. It is pretty amazing! There is lots to do but we settled on Eco Caching: we rented a GPS and navigated our way through the wooded trails to find cache boxes where we stamped our adventure passport. There is a learning curve for using the GPS but by the end of our adventure Ed was getting the hang of it. We found 4 of the 23 caches hidden. We will definitely be returning to complete our adventure! We loved it and may have found a new family hobby!

The Harrington's joined us for fireworks in the evening. The kids had fun playing together. The fireworks were really cool, but didn't last long enough for us.

Hope you all had a great holiday!
