Nope I didn't go down those

It's a small waterfall on one of the banks of the river. I can literally float the boat up next to it, because the rocks cut sharply downwords and I estimate it to be about 50 or so feet deep under where I was on the boat.
That hand is my left hand, the one that has the pinky and half numbness most of the time. Still though I can paddle pretty well despite. My upper body strength is still reasonable. Just my legs are a bit wacky these days, so rafting is slowly taking over my first love, which was biking..... Not going to be easy to fully give it up, but biking is a bit harder these days.
Eventully I am going to get a real kyak that will replace my big rubber raft. Until then I love being outside and my raft plus some nice people, help make it happen.
Hope you can get out sometimes too, Sally-C....
