Cadron Noon Saturday?

[Lupe]

Assuming no big thunder/lightning in the area, anyone want to paddle Cadron Saturday - say noon under bridge?

Looks like 3 or 4 of us are meeting under the bridge at noon if anyone else wants to join...

Cheers

I am almost certain that my decision to not decide until it was too late to decide to go saved me from a potentially debilitating case of heat exhaustion this afternoon. As I worked in the driveway on some long-overdue car maintenance, I actually broke into a sweat wearing a tee shirt. Had I gone to the river, it is almost certain I would have worn too much, and suffered immensely. (At least, this is what I'm trying to convince myself of.)

So, how about a trip report?

Had a friend come over with a splitter to help me clean up trees from the May tornado. It was 'sposed to be cooler. You wanna talk sweat?!?!

Well, the only thing more weird than how freakishly warm it was out there, had to be that Charlie, Curtis and I were the only ones out there, although a couple dudes in jeans and rec boats passed us right around barking dog rapid.

You did miss out on river salvage, though. There is a jon boat in a major pin. There was ample evidence that someone had tried (in vain) to get the boat free (the trolling motor was removed and was on the bank, there was a shovel wedged in the boat, and a come-along on shore). You could have had a fun time rigging a z-drag to free that thing.

I can report that Curtis is well on his way to become a surfing maniac. I heard "one more time" uttered at quite a few waves on the way downriver.
