Anybody floating Tuesday or Wednesday?

Post by justanovice » Sun Mar 18, 2012 5:05 pm

We are FINALLY on Spring Break, and Noah is begging to float somewhere. After my two (stupid) swims on the Cadron, I need to "get back on that horse" too. The longer I hesitate, the more the apprehension grows. If anybody is floating something Class I or II, we would love to hook up. With our busy schedule, it would need to be Tuesday or Wednesday. Please post. If not, we'll probably just paddle around in the lake behind our subdivision.

Sandy, I might be able to float the Buffalo again Tues or Wed. It was at a good level yesterday. We had a great time. We went Dillard's Ferry to Rush. I would be open to other parts of the Buffy. My son might go, too.

Make sure to check river levels. Lots of precip headed our way.

I think its time to start building the big boat. Being in Arkansas, I think I will christen it "Ark"

Renee,
Thanks for the heads up on weather. You're right, the forecast is NOT looking good. We may have to settle for the lake out back after all. I expected a little rain, but this looks ominous.

Jan,
Thanks for replying. I will keep an eye on the weather, and we can decide from there. It sure would be good to see you again.

Not good for recreational floating, but excellent for whitewater kayaking! I am loving this forecast :thumbup:
