Day 8: Russian River

This is Faith, the love doctor, reporting live. Today was a really good day, especially because the hikers had more fun ='). Our hike was interesting because it had a story to go with it, and the story went a little something like this:

Once upon a time there was a class that went camping up by the same lake we went hiking to. There was a beautiful young lady, named Mia, and a NOT-SO-HANDSOME-MAN, named BEN. One night during the camp, they decided to sneak out and row a boat on the lake. As the story goes, these two best friends turned into lovers after that night, although this NOT-SO-HANDSOME-MAN had a girlfriend at the moment, he still thought it was okay for him to make his best friend fall in love with him… Ben totally thought he was the most handsome man on Earth='). They are now married, and they lived happily ever after.


Hi everyone, this is Santos and I was one of the reporters for today. We started today with a good breakfast and left to the bus around 9:30. It was about a three hour ride to the final destination. Many people took advantage of the long drive and fell asleep. When we got there we got geared up and started the hike. The hike was easy, but all the stuff us fishers had to carry made it uncomfortable. When we got to the fishing ground I was hoping to catch at least one fish. We only got to fish for about 20 minutes and I didn't catch anything, neither did anybody else. I think if I had been able to fish for an hour I would have caught something. I couldn't believe that all of us had to carry all that gear for nothing, so we headed back to the bus.



Hey, I'm Josh. Today we started off slow and off schedule 'cause people didn't have fishing licenses. We stopped at Fred Meyer to get some licenses, but they didn't have any, so we went to Sportsman Warehouse. The drive out was a few hours, but it felt like forever. When we got there, we got ready and hiked to the falls. We hiked more to get to our fishing spot and only fished for like 5 minutes before we started walking back to the camp site. We cooked hot dogs and S'mores. When heading out to the fork in the trail, Ben thought the sound of the wind in the trees was the river. I knew otherwise. The hike was brutal for me because I was wearing my fishing gear. It was sad not to see a bear, but if we had seen a bear, I would have wrestled it for the fun of it. Ben bought like at least 5 cans of bear mace, which we never even got to use. Overall the day was somewhat fun, but really exhausting. THE END!!

  4. This post is great. However, Faith's contribution has some factual errors in it which make me come off a little shady. You all know that's not how I am. The hiking group did have the best time, though.

  5. Even if the hiking group did have the best time, the fishing group still deserves props for our push through the woods for three casts on the water!
