Riding the whitewater waves

"If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water."
-Loren Eiseley

To celebrate Jordan's birthday, and just to relax before school started, we headed up to the Ocoee River to go whitewater rafting this weekend. We spent about two hours on the river, and thankfully had no spills into the rapids. It was a great day in the sun and a great distraction from lesson plans and seating charts.
As I paddled through the water, I couldn't help but be amazed by the dynamic forces of the waves. How organic it looked--despite the fact, that the water is not alive. I could have watched the white caps all day long.
