Not BS. You bring the boat and I'll take the stern.

Max, The creek north of Clarksville was likely Spadra creek and was probably on Bob Frazier's property who still lives there. The creek has changed a lot over the years but it was great to have it a mile from my house for four years.

To be fair, I did talk Roy into paddling the left line at Maytag(but we flipped on his side). That's why his Vertige got broke. Dale

My knees have I think one more class IV trip in them. Who's in.......... Marcell Jones......want to come out and play!!! Danger Boy?? Paul Newton? Any of you real old school boys want to leave the rubber at home next time and take a walk down memory lane?? Let's go!

One slight problem........ I don't have a tandem canoe anymore. Marcell I'm counting on you to be my partner!!
Gordan, I'll be your huckleberry!
