Today was another great day on the river–and we had new friends to play with, Ken and Patty, long lost cousins of Teresa joined the crew of Bill, Teresa, Steve, and Me.\u00a0 We started out on our 11 mile tour with water levels at 4.3 feet and 61\u00b0 for the water temperature.\u00a0 Our air was a comfortable 71\u00b0 and mostly sunny skies for the day.\u00a0 We cruised along at a wild 3.3 mph and everything was going just fine until Patty thought we were going too slow so she decided to swim, because she thought it would be faster.\u00a0 She did enjoy her swim through the trees on the river and came back out with a very good attitude about her mishap, oh, and she was not hurt either.<\/p>\n

Today we had 42 or 43 Eagle sightings–somewhat in dispute, because there were so many we kind of lost track, we had Eagles everywhere.\u00a0 I did get a couple of decent pictures of them, but mostly they were soaring over us and never could get those pictures.\u00a0 We also saw our gaggle of geese and got Dan all excited to start hunting.\u00a0 We all had a good time and out guests said they enjoyed themselves and also enjoyed the scenery, and I know that our professional guide crew enjoyed having them share our day.\u00a0 Come and visit again!!<\/p>\n
