Dub's Family Day At Savannah Rapids

Kelsey and I love coming to the Rapids, and we love being able to share it with Maddie.

The weather was beautiful the other day, so we spent a day at Savannah Rapids. My wife, Kelsey and I had been wanting to take Baby Maddie up to the rapids for a while, but either the weather was too cold, or we had something going on. Finally, this past Sunday it was just right so we loaded up and went up to the Rapids.

It has always been one of my favorite places in the CSRA. I've always loved the pavilion there and the trails. I love everything about that place. Its  just a great place to spend the day. You can take a bike ride, or walk or run the trails. Also you can kayak on the canal. Theres a playground there as well. We saw people having a picnic, it was great. You can spend the whole day there.

Baby Maddie had a great time. She was a little cranky when we first got there, only because it was time for a bottle. After she had some lunch, then all was right with the world. Kelsey and I carried her around the trails, and let her see the river. She loved seeing everything, and it gave her a reason to wear her sunglasses, which she loves by the way.

If you're looking for a great place to hang out with the family, or just go to have a few hours to yourself, I'd recommend Savannah Rapids.
