Hi guys & gals,

It is starting to look like I might be in Arkyland this weekend. Got a group that wants to paddle near Russellville. Anyone know if there is a diner near or in Dover?

PS: Fish....any chance you might have my helmet or did you & Zack survive the mighty Royal "Gouge"? BTW, Good to see you guys out in CO. Too bad you didn't bring Ryan since I had all those extra beers just sitting around with his name on them. Is ever allowed out of the house any more? ;-)

TJ! It was great to see you in CO. I know Fish is out playing on the creeks at the moment (assuming he didn't get skunked) but he definitely has your helmet. I actually ended up using it myself because one of the girls that went with us forgot her helmet all together! Long story short Fish cam-strapped his helmet to his head, I loaned out my helmet and used yours....all just to make sure there was a girl out there with us :) That thing worked nicely, I only impact tested it once but it didn't break :) The trip was stinking awesome. Probably my favorite trip through the gorge. Which is saying something since I used to do it every day! Too bad you couldn't shake loose to come with us As for Ryan, he's pretty much retired these days. Never leaves the house except for work and definitely doesn't consider hanging out with all of us cool Fayettenamese people a priority... Hope ya'll have a good trip this weekend.

TJ last name Hittle? Been a long trip from Colorado since that 80's meet up!! Heck, we almost got to meet again on Irvin's MFS trip!!

Will be in the area tomorrow. May run into you again!!

Yah buddy. That's me. Long time.......no see. Fish's 2007 MFS trip was gi-hugic FUN. Glad he had room for a Kansas Paddler. See you maybe on a river soon.

PS: Thanks to all for the diner tips.
PSS: Zach..........you rock too buddy. Glad one of my spare CO helmets got some good use. You are right, that run is Royal Gorgeous. I will never forget my 6,600 cfs run there.

Ditto on DeWayne's. It's one of the best places in the state for down home cookin' and honkin' huuuuuuuuuuuuge servings!

I would have to agree I always stop when I am coming through there. Never noticed the name before though, is it run by "DeeWayne from the Ozarks" as the joke goes?
