Great Wolf Lodge What the heck, it’s cheesy yes but also very fun. Went to a ridiculous indoor water-park in Williamsburg, Va and had a blast. It helped that three of R’s best buds were there too and they all loved playing sharks and minnows in the ‘crooked creek’ area. Emmet liked the wavepool best and Nathan seemed to like it all, especially the climby-thing. It’s a cold, grey and rainy spring break and we had a ball. |

Can you identify this snake? I guess I should go for something other than cell phone camera to get a better shot… |

Conway River And a morning review of the gauges looked good for the Conway River, a tributary to the Rapidan, which we’d not been on before. Mark and Mark had exchanged email with Hank earlier and they were up for the trip. While it rained most of yesterday (it would have to in order to bring the river up) and it rained a good part of the way there, the rains lifted while we were on the river and the sun even broke through for a while.
It was a great trip, lots of fun class II with some IIIs thrown in (one good sized double drop. And luckily for us, no barbed wire fences across the river. There were several trees though (note the canoes portaging above — the river wide strainer is on the right). This was a really fun trip; the river was bank full but not overflowing. The current was pushy and there weren’t many eddies, but the couple times we needed them, there they were. We did have to get out three or four times for trees across the river. I thought it was more fun than the Covington, but maybe that’s just because the Conway is fresh in my memory and the last Covington run was years ago. An excellent reason to return. |

Oh, THAT flood watch Not too many people at the Farmers Market this morning. Even less down on Union St. mainly because they’d have to swim. But I felt sorry for the still-open river-side Starbucks and bought a pity latte as the helpers swept back the tide. -Z |
