This whole paddling thing is in the attitude. When you dump ,more times than you can count, you need a good attitude.
New boat, nice people, almost to much water and away we went. Ira showed up last minute and asked for a tag along and ride back, no problem. After his first roll, we all felt a little better. Later we were not sure if he wasn't aiming for the rocks though. It was the verical pin that he shifted through and recoverd that made us all realize, he has attitude. Ray I was up to his flawless paddling tricks, The best part with ray is the ear to ear grin, and his willing ness to share some of those tricks, all attitude. John W, tried to keep up with my dump record, not quite! Nice endo! Great attitude!
We all had a ball. Warm, fun and if you haven't been able to tell loads of good attitudes on the Lower Mad.
Thanks for putting up with me!
