I went tubing down the Brandywine River yesterday with my two boys and one of their friends. It was a gorgeous sunny day, but not too hot...mid 80's and moderate humidity. Being in the water up on a tube was refreshing. We saw a lot of turtles, all sorts of birds, various kinds of fish since the river is quite clear and clean. Since the water level is not real high this time of year (except after a large storm) I chose the 2 hr. float vs. a longer one, especially since they told me it would take longer than usual since the current was slower....a couple times the boys acted like this was the longest tube ride ever in the history of the world, but I found it very relaxing. I got a hoot out of that...OK, I'm playing my own straight man since we ate late lunch at Hooters on the way home.
