I’ve forgotten what kept me off the river last year—probably some health-related thing. I’m aiming to go this year. My schedule is a bit more flexible (I was just laid off), but now I’m worried about money. I’m glad you’re getting out there!

Arenosa, this particular trip is between $80-110. Not bad for a full day and a free lunch. Anything to get you out there!

The layoff was less than a week ago, so right now I’m still dealing with the shock and uncertainty. I’m sure I’ll find a way to afford the trip!

I am so sorry. I do understand, been there too many times.

Thanks! It’s very weird for me, as it’s a first. I don’t know how I made it to 65 without ever being laid off (I don’t count the summer “layoffs” when I taught Outdoor School)!

Beautiful… pictures and I felt I shared the experience.. At the age where one person getting a group together is impossible…

Thanks for sharing!
