THE SUMO TUBE*

Anyone up for trying something new, a little scary and REALLY dangerous? (It's not really dangerous for all of you who keep telling me how concerned you are. I'm only kidding. It's perfectly safe at the recommended speed, which we will go.)

Yup, a SUMO*Tube! I ordered one today. I can't wait for it to get here. Anyone else brave enough to try it? It will be so funny to see someone roll around in it. I know Katya will be dieing to try it out. We went tubing the other day after work. I was having a great time until the giant tube I was on got caught in the wind and threw me into the air. Adam thought it was really cool that the tube and I were not really touching the water. I was screaming at the top of my lungs for him to slow down, and climbing the tube to try to put some weight on it. It was horrible when I landed. It knocked this wind out of me and flushed my eye sockets. And he did it on purpose because he thought it looked cool. Poor Sarah was on the second tube and I managed to kick her pretty good when I flew off. We were both a mess and really mad because we were just supposed to have an easy ride back to the dock. So much for that! That gives me an idea, when I get Adam on that sumo tube, I'll show him the time of his life... (not really, I wouldn't be reckless or stupid like that); but he's sure going to be hesitant when I remind him he has one coming!

Oh my word! That looks really fun! (and scary!!)

You need to take video when you get it and try it out! :-)

Nat you are seriously crazy, that looks really scary and dangerous. What were you thinking? Just wait till mom reads about this.

Rachael said...

You guys are seriously crazy, I second Lori's opinion.

Also, I can't believe we've gone all summer without Katya getting to come to your house for tubing. What are you doing Labor Day?

That looks super fun! But I think I will be too scared to try... but if I see someone else do it, I might get a little brave, as long as Adam isn't driving!

I agree. Your mother is going to have a fit when she reads your blog about the "tube" thing. Looks very dangerous. I can juste envision water rushing in and pulling the person down under the water.

I think I could actually fit it that thing. If I ever get to your area you will have to take me for a spin. Looks fun?

I want to try it!!!!! That looks like so much fun! I'm totally jealous that you ordered one!
