the ocoee river

On Saturday, Jeremy, Megan and my Dad rafted on the Ocoee River. The river is a couple of hours from Nashville. The river is where the 1996 Olympic whitewater competition was held...
don't they look like Olympic athletes!!





Just in case you were wondering, I was not the photographer...I opted out of this one! they only rafted the upper section where the olympic competition was held (you can also raft the middle section too)






If you ever feel the need to raft this river too... they used Ocoee Adventure Center...http://www.ocoeeadventurecenter.com/
