I bought a new camera and have been trying to adjust to it.

Or we don’t but are fine letting you destroy your own reputation. You are trying to do it to others but it only makes you look bad. No matter if anyone agrees with you or not, nobody wants to be associated with crazy. You let a bunch of politicians get the best of you and that’s sad. But you aren’t the only one that has done that. I feel sad for all of it. I’ve tried to just ignore it this year and do other things. But it’s always being shoved down everyone’s throats every where they go. So please, just in this one place, STFU. I don’t give 2fuks who any of you vote for. Bring on football!!!

That's good because if they see you licking them down at the Walmart they will probably put you on house arrest.

my wife and I float around there a bunch because of the easy shuttle but it has turned into a zoo the last several years. But everyone seems to be a lot better behaved too.

You mean perch? LOL

There are some great camping spots along that stretch if you want to do it primitive. Other than that it's going to be Hootentown or James River Outfitters for a campground. I'm probably out that weekend on camping but will definitley make it down to float.

And by October, most of the party floaters will be done floating for the year. Somebody choose a date so I can try to get that on the warden's calendar.

Wow! You are giving me a fright. I promise to have no less than 6 cameras with me. And I will post whatever is entertaining. Hopefully that’s not at your expense. 😁

I plan on taking a polaroid.

You don’t say

That’s not normal this time of the year.

Depending on my chaotic life I would like to join. There won’t be much traffic on any stretch in October.

This is why I hate them. We used to have tons of rabbits in our neighborhood. Now we never see any. Even the owls have moved on.

I've pulled a recurve on a feral cat before. I didn't let it fly. It was daytime and I wasn't sure is anyone was watching. I do hate them though.

I didn’t make it, but I like the yellow ones.

Tells me you never attended a history class.

Highly educated does not always equal intelligent.

I will confess that I grew up eating catfish out of farm ponds in Oklahoma. Maybe I just don’t realize they taste bad. :

The ones out of Stockton were always good. We never kept larger ones though.

The guide makes it much simpler. But you are right, all you really need is a good map. And all maps have a scale. And that’s how you measure the river. It’s pretty basic stuff.

It's 2023. 1965 doesn't matter anymore. But yes I can mark a map and make my way downstream. That's what we did in the early 2000's. There were no smart phones then either. If you can't figure out where you are from a paper map you should probably just stay in your house.

Mine is tucked safely in a dry bag in case I need it. There is no babysitting.

It's a good plan.
