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: http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...s/96c4348e.jpg 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.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Now he flyfishes from a canoe.. This is getting better all the time... *Yikes, guess that low fat center of gravity comes in handy from time to time. Wonder if he has a seperate canoe for each butt cheek ?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I'd love to see THAT! It's got to be quite a site watching Harry shoe- horn his fat blubber into a canoe! |

I and II rapids, enough for me. I don't canoe there, but the rapids around Great Falls, Va., would be enough to send you home crying, if you survived. You can tell by the way the river meanders in that area that it's going to be a 'wild and wooly' ride, huh Harry? http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...ville,va&sll=3... or:http://tinyurl.com/57mkba -- A Harry Krause truism: "It's not a *baby* kicking, beautiful bride, it's just a fetus!"- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - That's funny!!!!!

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. Rattlesnakes, maybe, but cottonmouths and corals range generally south of the Shenandoah. |
