Reo Rafting: Redeemed! :)
Hi guys! …Just a quick post tonight to let you all know that despite the rain and some extraordinarily mean-spirited campers*, Vern and I had a fabulous time at the Reo Rafting Resort this time around.
A big thank-you from us both has to go out to the owner, Bryan, who took it upon himself to give us a credit for another white water rafting experience, to make up for last year’s let-down. We had a terrific time — Your crew this year were fabulous, the resort is an awesome place to camp and kick back, and the experience on the water was incredible! I’ve never seen the water levels so high… In fact, I almost lost my contact lenses twice during our run because of the intensity! Tana, our guide, was fantastic, too! Two thumbs up, Reo! Too bad the rain had to soak us inside the tent on Saturday night, but, hey… You can’t control the weather!
*the story behind the mean-spirited campers: BASTARDS. Who has the balls to steal a cooler FULL of beer/vodka sitting right outside of our tent??! I’ve heard of people being shot for less. You’ll get yours. 
And, to the assholes in the next tent that decided to scream at each other and break up over three full hours… Do ya think you could have sped up the ugliness some? The rest of us were actually trying to get some sleep at the ungodly hour of 3am, y’know.

Re: the Bastards…. The fighting in the next, sure, next time bring some earplugs, but the stolen cooler–no–that would mean talking the law into one’s own hands…..Gerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!
But I’m glad you guys had a great trip rafting, and no one got hurt! Summer it not over yet, and BC has got more rivers to explore.
Oh look, the sun came back! Yeah–summer again in Vancouver!
stolen cooler sucks!
At the end of my outward bound adventure (a few years back)someone stole the hiker leaders’ stove (since there was only one other set of campers down the road, we knew who they were! They wouldn’t admit to it though.).
Wait. Did they just steal the booze or did they actually take the whole “cooler” itself. That would double suck!
Err… At almost $200 a night for the experience, I don’t think earplugs at 3am for over 3 hours should be necessary. Just my 2 cents. Not the resort’s fault, but rather the jerks that happened to be there sharing / ruining our night.
And, yes, they stole the ENTIRE cooler. Not just the booze inside.
Wonder if it was the same guys that stole my sister’s friend’s TENT last time they went camping. Please tell me how someone is meant to camp without a damn tent. Uh oh, these things go in threes and I’m going camping in 2 weeks…
That’s why you should camp in middle of nowhere so nobody’s around you.
That’s also why I fully advocate camping with either a shotgun or a Rottweiler.
Camping where NO ONE IS AROUND?!?! Thats fuct up dude! Nothing like a great big party with DJs spinning all night long…. with excursions during the day to get away from the crowds.
The cooler loss was no surprise what so ever… plus, I forgot to put all the vodka in the cooler… so, it wasnt as bad as I had thought. Lost all the Stella though… nuts. And, the cooler.
I actually found the fight interesting. The guy sounded like he had it coming… the girl never raised her voice… she was way too cool for him. I found it interesting that Tanya saw it the opposite way around.
