We were supposed to be ten solo boats for two nights of gravel bar life. The forecast chased four participents. Some took paid days off work. We could bump the dates. Or not. We were going to lose guys either way. Our karsty limestone has been so parched and puckered there wasn't a risk of being flooded while on the river. It was just a question of how much do you mind being rained on

It is more work. More nylon is unfurled. We loaded heavier. Have your own opinions about bringing wood in, but I was glad to tote a bag of split oak. My only regret is putting the biggest bottle of bourbon I could into a plastic bladder. It gave the flavor an unfavorable disposition that became nappy by the third day. The same thing happened to the quart of corn likker. Lesson learned

It was a good time. I got to hang out with 421sd and drink fine spirits and stay up past stumble-thirty with a good crew. All the gear is dry and stowed. As of now, no one on the trip wound up with the 'rona

Always nice to see more gravel bar life here.

In honor of the midwest crew that seem to be the lifeblood of this place.
