Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river



Kenny Chesney paid homage to this Creedence Clearwater Revival classic several years ago with a line in one of his songs that talks about rolling on the river with Creedence. The song was played on the radio frequently, and one day my younger brother (who shall remain nameless to save him from embarassment) was singing along and we hear him say "rolling on the river with Creducks." We started laughing and tell him that's not how the song goes. He immediately gets defensive so we asked him what Creducks meant. And guess what he said.... drumroll, please... "it's the plural of Creduck, duh!" Of course, why didn't we think of that? Ha - these are the types of intelligent conversations we have on our family vacations :-)



Well, this year we didn't run into any Creducks, but we did head to the river - the Guadalupe to be exact. We stayed in a really fun house with a floating dock, a rope swing, canoes, and a great deck. My parents joined us, along with Daniel and Nathan, and my Grandmother.

We went swimming,


worked puzzles,


cuddled with Mackenzie,


visited Luckenbach,








toured Cascade Caverns,


and got soaked in the process.


We had a wonderful time and are already thinking about next year!
