Gone Floating

Yes indeed folks, the time has come for the first summer float trip of the year. It's been a long time coming (since it's already the third week of June), and I can't wait to get out on the river. This is also the first big float trip in which I've had the honor of being leader/organizer. We're going down with 10 people, renting a 10 person campsite and 5 boats - which meant reservations had to be made and money had to be paid up front. Selling seats was not a problem. The first day of the official announcement I had 8 seats bought and paid for.

This is not the first float trip I've done this year. Although the historical account of my first float trip this year (ManCamp 06) has been lost. The photographic proof of the expedition is downloadable from this site (at least what has been declassified).

We're doing an 8 mile float down the Elk River that ends at the campsite. Those floats are best because you can take your sweet time getting down the river. We'll be staying at River Ranch Resort. The weather channel has been calling for a sunny 85 degrees on Saturday. Looks like it should be a good time, too bad the rest of you couldn't make it.
