Yesterday, Saturday, we had a nursing student canoe trip. Turned out not that many people came, but the few that did had a BLAST! We started an hour later than we thought, but that's ok. We were all good and awake by the time we got in the water.
We went to The King's River in Eureka Springs, AR. It's alot like the Elk River that's in MO minus the boob flashing and beer cans on the bottom of the river. King's River has alot more spots that you have to be good at manuvering or you will flip and be in the water scrambling to get your things and keep your boat from flipping!
I think for the group of canoes we had our total dumps for the day was 9 or more. William and I started off well, with only 1 dump compared to the others 2. But, after some minor diagreements and my nothing can go right, we dumped 2 more times and the last time I thought I was going to drowned! Ha, thankfully I didn't. Just came away from the day with some minor scrapes on my legs, a bruised hand and a MAJOR sunburn.
Note to self: Reapply sunscreen, OFTEN!
I did use sunscreen but by the way I look you would think I didn't. We got in the water at 10 and got off the water at 5:30. I put on suncreen at 7:30. I guess I lost my mind or something!
Me and mister sun will be taking a break from each other for quiet a few days!
None the less, it was a FUN trip!
