A weekend of whitewater rafting
Guest post written by Horace Merlotte
Last weekend was our family’s annual whitewater rafting trip to the mountains.
That may make it sound like we really rough it, but we actually only spend about four or five hours rafting and the rest of the time laying in hammocks by the river or hanging out in our rental cabin. We also fit in some outlet shopping while we’re in the area, as well.
Each year I have even more fun, but this time around I was having a lot of trouble hearing what everyone else in our raft was shouting. Whitewater rafting isn’t a quiet sport but the helmets they require we wear don’t block out so much noise that you have trouble hearing what people are saying.
I complained about this a bit so when we got home my wife told me that I should think about hearing aids. So I looked up miracle ear hearing aids prices and miracle ear locations online and found some information. I scheduled an appointment to get fitted for some and am looking forward to next year’s trip when I can hear my grandkids screams over all the rapids.
