paddling around in an old canoe. Unlike you, I earn a decent living,
have a few hobbies I only have to take semi-seriously, and I don't have
to live vicariously through my children or grandchildren. Oh...and I'm
not a short, ill-tempered, semi-literate little schitt - like you.
Psssst...is that daughter of yours going to get a motorcycle racing
scholarship to college?
Harry, we all know you are a failure in life, that's why you must lie
about every aspect of it. Perhaps it's because you are too stupid to
know that being in a sport with rules, expectations, and consequences
for NOT following the rules, plus the fact that it teaches you how to
be competitive without being an asshole about it (something you should
take to heart), does indeed teach you a lot of basics about life.

That Class I picture would be major rapids here in Florida. Our scale
of difficulty is due to the number of trees you have to pull your boat
over and the number of snakes.


I have zero interest in "competitive canoeing" or its lingo, but I do
like to paddle around in a canoe on a pretty river. I've seen a few
snakes swimming in the Shenandoah from time to time. I have no idea what
kind they are. What's nice is fly fishing on the river from either a
canoe or a raft, or just going for a swim.

We launch from this spot:

We have a gravel road leading down between two parts of the river bank
right down to the water. Dark gloomy day when this was shot.

Looks like a great place to catch rattlers and cotton mouths. They like
slow moving water. And with all that underbrush you might find corals too.
