We Raft by Jacob Judd
In that valley, where eagles fly
Where the river cuts our path
Where flies buzz
And fish swim
We raft
We start in the morning
We end before dark
Through rapids and forests
And sometimes just floating
We raft
We start off the day
By packing our tents
And then we are ready
To head out again
We raft
We reach the new camp
We set up again
Maybe take a nap
In a chair by the bank
We rest
When all is quiet
And the night is done
We wait for tomorrow
Boy is this fun
We rest
In that valley where eagles fly
Where the river has cut our path
Where flies buzz
And fish swim
We raft
Written by Jacob Judd, age 13, after a summer '06 Middle Fork of the Salmon trip.
