ACC Meeting Held in Colorado!

Two separate groups of Arkansas boaters met at the confluence of the Yampa and Green Rivers in Colorado last Thursday. As per ACC customs, food and drink were shared, hugs and high-fives were exchanged and lies were told!

We knew that our plans called for both groups to reach the confluence around midday on Thursday and were on the lookout for each other, but, the way it worked out could not have been planned any better. We virtually arrived simultan..., syncro..., uh, ....at the same time!

It was a real treat to get to see all my buds on a river bank in Colorado and share the day, or at least lunch!

It sounds like most have made it back safely from Colorado or are slowly winding their way home. Here's a quick video of my run on Hell's Half Mile in a cat. It was my first time 'on the sticks' and I think I did OK!

There's likely to be another meeting in Salmon, ID Sunday night as well, then a very small prolonged meeting in Kallispel MT a week later.Can't wait.

Great to see everyone.
Couldn't have planned it better.
