It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so... Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe. Stupidity has no average...

What is the story with the woven bracelets? If you take the time it takes, it takes less time. --Pat Parelli American by birth; Alaskan by choice. --ironbender

Seriously one of the guys' (Dewey) daughter sent him with friendship bracelet kits. We each made one and gave it to someone else on the trip. Last edited by Steve; 07/23/14. Carpe' Scrotum

Man that seems like it was so long ago. It was big, but didn't have any issues. I don't have video of it but some others in our group do. I'll be getting copies in the next week or so.

I've yet to hit any western ww but have been having a blast in the southeast for quite a few years now. your pics make a compelling case for changing that. My home is less than a mile, as the crow flies, from a great class 3 (4 at high water levels) run. How long was the wait for the permit? -Brian- Whatever you do, do well.
