I like the option that you invite us all back to your place and let us sleep in air conditioning and you feed us in the morning.  :-D

Well, I do have air conditioning, but the floor space is limited. I didn't get bunk beds like mhoward suggested!

Watch out for rafts on Saturday--it's the annual raft trip for the high school where I used to teach.  There are three charter buses going up, which means lots of out-of-control rafts heading down the river!

I'm leaving Piggott, Ar around 1:30 or 2. I'll stopping off at REI in Nashville to exchange something and maybe Whole Foods. Looks like I'll be at AU around 10pm.

Philll says they have setup camp in the wooded area on the back side of the Tiki Bar.

You find a ride Drew?

as the wise man said:
I guess I had a good day... my car started, my face isn't busted, my boat isn't pinned and i don't have a boob on my elbow.





fun trip.  i looked at the CFS page and it showed bubbles of 2800 CFS mid day both saturday and sunday...

I suppose that somewhere out there someone considers it a good day because your elbow isn't on their boob....

Definitely a fun trip.

Thanks to everyone who helped with the truck problems, especially Joe Dinic for driving us around all weekend, Ray for driving us to dinner, and Ryan for the loan of his truck.

We stopped by the Mazda place on the way home and the truck started. It's back in Mississippi now.

A couple of the SAA girls who were rafting reported to me that they met some of my friends kayaking on the river.  Hope you all had a great time!  Wish we could have been there!

Was a good trip,even with all the excitement.

Jill, the girls looked so sad when I told them that you warned us about them being out there.  They said they miss you.

Glad the truck made it home Bryant.  Did you tell them you were taking it or just leave them to wonder what happened to it?

The service department was closed so we just loaded it and left. Dad called them this morning to tell them we took it. They hadn't noticed.

I'll have to pick up the key next time I'm in the area.
