I met my brother and his family for a quick few days together, and, as the only outdoorsy one in the bunch - they went to Dollywood and I went rafting! Even though this was only my second time rafting (1st was Alaska) it had been raining so the water was high (woot!) Our guide Juliet was new this year... More
