Lots of kayaks playing, not safe to wade, sure not taking Sam out in it.

Whats not safe about it?
Wherever the standard of freedom and Independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will her heart, her benedictions and her prayers be.

But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy.

She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all.

She is the champion and vindicator only of her own.

Oh yea I guess they got rain we didn't for a change. That sux. Surely you can get high enough to get some lower water?

Floated the Nantahala yesterday, rained so hard that at times could barely see Sam in front of a two man Dickie and I had a hat on.

Just saw that they had to airlift a hiker out that got hit by a falling tree... Cosby area had an EF-1 tornado Thursday afternoon. Crazy.

Be safe up there...

Wow--funny two weeks ago a SUP was all you need to know why you would fish that river.  I am guessing you are ok, or you are blogging to leave your mark.  Keep your head up and your feet down river...dont stand.
