Rope Shinadigans!

My husband...the genius!
This entry is just a little story about the wonderfully brilliant husband I have. So on our rest day Jeff decided to go wash the rope in the river that flows through  the smith rock valley while I went for a little trail run.  Half way into my run I see this crazy person swimming in this freezing cold water and I notice that it is that silly boy I said yes to 2 years ago at an altar or something like that.  I watch him for a couple seconds and notice that he is mad..because he normally doesn't punch and curse at water.  So i ask what the heck he is doing and he aggressively replied "your husband is a mornon thats what!". I thought for a bit and realized that that comment could relate to several aspects of like..so I said "what"? Even more aggitated at himself and with a tear in his eye he replied "I lost the rope in the river". Now I havent really been in this situation before but for some reason I thought that was just hysterical so I laughed provoking Jeff's anger streak to escalate...He didn't find it funny that he threw 200 dollars and the thing that saves our life everyday climbing into the water.  He kepy saying "im so sorry sweetie" but I was seriously just a) getting a kick out of the whole situation and b) worrying about how cold he must be.  Jeff had decided he would just give up so he started walking towards the "shore" and all of the sudden his face lit up with exceitement and lo and behole the rope had swam back to him! After a 10 miunute cheering fest and a quick snuggle with his rope, jeff finished cleaning it and I carried on with my run!
