Memorial Day has found us heading for the Buffalo up in the Ozarks for a number of years. We leave out early Friday and get back late Monday. I park the Sea Lion and use the OT 169. Usually we set up a rustic base camp on the river and then there are different stretches to paddle/float during the days with a short shuttle. There is some nice hiking if you wish. It's that kind of slow-w-w-w "River Time" sort of weekend where everyone fights over a good tent site, steals beer from their tentmates, fights over who didn't bring enough limes and/or Jose', second-guesses any attempt at decent cooking, disparages everyone else's choice for "wine night", fights over hammock-time, spills water-food-beer, trips over guy lines, mashes a finger or two with hammer-rock-horseshoe-gunwale, gets a pretty bad sunburn .....well, just has a WONDERFUL time !! Trip report to follow ........ya'll pass a good weekend, yeah !! Seriously, do take a moment and remember what this MEMORIAL DAY is really about ...a pause to remember and honor those who did not make it back from that last patrol .........Peyton (Louisiana) USMC E-5 >************************************************************************ *** >PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List >Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net >Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net >Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ >************************************************************************ *** ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
