If I knew folks were going to be there even without the rain I would have driven down.

Hi Leland! Damn, I would have gladly joined you today. Pretty bummed that the rain didn’t happen. All kinds of warnings about flooding and everything. Oh well! Guess I’ll go riding instead.

Plan to be there about 11:00 but can be flexible as to time. No reception once I get there so respond early enough that I’ll see it if interested.

I’d be willing to bet that if anyone looked at the number of hits on their links, that the Roselle gauge and secondarily those around it, have more hits than any other.

They do like you to sign in for the Upper just to keep track of whose on the river. The Upper is dam release while the Top Yough is natural flow and you have to catch it after a good rain. Both are awesome runs. But since it’s a little harder to catch the Top Yough when it’s…Read more

Both at the park and at the park’s water source. Another death happened recently when a woman swam in a lake in Texas. A brain eating amoeba in that case as well.

All of the Saint watershed gages show that lots of rain hit. Not sure what’s going on with the Roselle gage but I doubt that it’s correct.

Tracey and I aren’t going on the SE trip either and are counting on some of the rain that’s forecasted through the entire week, to include the weekend, actually makes it into the river. We plan to be at the Saint if the river is at a decent level.

But I thought I’d share something with you that I didn’t know. I knew I was recert’ing early because my certification didn’t expire until 12/2016. But I couldn’t pass up the chance to recert here rather than have to drive a long way to do it somewhere else.…Read more

But sometimes humor can be found in the oddest places as can be witnessed when we attend a wake for a dear friend or family member. I do hope you get your boat back and that those who are responsible for the theft of both boats are prosecuted.
