Summary

We had a fun day of rafting! Our lead paddlers had no idea what they were doing, short strokes, long strokes, wide strokes, quick, delayed, and often hitting blades behind them but everyone else had experience and frankly were often laughing so hard that the nothing got done - We, somehow, humorously survived!

Terry and I have nothing but kudos for the Backroads Tour Guides and Organization!
