Re: The Passing of Josie, A River Dog

Diane and John- So sorry to hear of your loss. It is so difficult to have to make that type of decision. I had to put my 20-year old cat down in January. I didn't realize how difficult it would be and I still miss her. Josie was a beautiful dog and she had such wonderful, caring owners. She had a gr...

Marc and I would really like to volunteer to run sweep for such an grand expedition. :shock: We, of course, will be paddling tandem. We haven't figured out how to do anything differently. :D What time is the flotilla meeting?

Re: Snow Creek/IB Sunday afternoon

We had a great run. :D It was raining on us at the beginning, but gradually stopped and gave us a break. We just did one run. There seemed to be plenty of water for the kayaks with us, but it was getting a little bony for the old Caption running tandem. Hit a few rocks here and there. :shock: We had...

Re: Snow Creek/IB Sunday afternoon

Marc and I are planning to be there around noon. That is, if we can find the upper bridge. I have always followed other people in, but am pretty sure that I can find it. If the time changes, will someone post by 10:00 A.M. That is when we plan to leave. Thanks.
