Thank you, Patrick.

Gretchen

Matt: Here's the report by Charlie Walbridge in the Sept/Oct 2001 AWA Journal Safety Report. (Page 93) I hope it helps. I will always remember paddling with your dad and what a kind person he was.

February 3. I'm going to have to change it to some other date when the probability is greater of having enough water to paddle something besides the James.

I'm in the movies :!: The local "river rats" met for an "unofficial" New Year's Day gathering to paddle downstream from the I-95 bridge to the Falmouth Bridge. Despite outdoor temps at freezing, seven boaters dressed in dry suits and had "fun" taking their time manuever...

As long as we're confessing I got stuck on the same rock Saturday morning just before Slo2rol had his unfortunate encounter of the worst kind. Since I had not called out YOAD though, I did not swim I pushed off the rock into the hole bow first and stayed upright
