Good event..
Out west.. we have lots of rivers but they are
often too cold even in the summer to swim in.
Because of the wet and cold, we also don't have
any poision snakes or bite'n bugs outside of tiny
skeeters. I didn't grow up in Mizzourah, but have
visited<G>
What's the chance of a Ranger running into a
water moccer'sin? Down below Nat'l camp I
viewed a backwater inlet of tablerock lake,
and there seemed to me to be some strange movement
in the shady waters, take'n the fun right out
of my giddy-up to go jump in<G>
*Now I 'magine.. it's like the attitude you
assume in Surf'n the Oregon coast to shark
attack... *Total ignoreance!<G>
