Thanks everyone for going on the trip. River trips are what they are -river trips.
On Saturday the weather was beautiful. We got muddy and then we got washed off. What more could you ask for? When I look back maybe we should have stopped after the wild water-works. At least Tom would have his kayak and gear.
I can't express the pain I feel for Tom's loss but I will do my best to catch the vandals. Unfortunately this incident happened but let's not let it be in vain. Remember this valuable lesson and practice safeguards in the future.
I have taken a shower; clothes are in the washer; some gear was hose washed and is hanging everywhere to dry; the rest was toweled off so my bathroom is a little cluttered. I'll write a trip report tonight and send it to Chris tomorrow to post on the website.

If you don't write a trip report or have pictures to add please send Tim Lawson owner of "Georgia Trail Outfitters" a Thank-You for providing a wonderful shuttle.

It was really nice paddling with y’all despite the buzz kill of Tom’s misfortune. It could have happened to more than one of us and Tom took it for us all this time. More on it later, once I’ve had a chance to compose my thoughts.
I'm going to needle Tom into writing about this drama so that we can deal with this sort of thing responsibly. I'll also set up some email alerts on Craigslist and ebay in case someone sells a mango-colored Tsunami in the next year...
Please, please, please send me your trip reports and links to your photo's (or share your thoughts below!) so that all of these experiences can be enjoyed vicariously by others.
Well it looks like I can't embed more than one slideshow in a post (which makes sense. Imagine loading a page of 30 slideshows!) so I'll post a link to my photo's instead.
The photo's are unfiltered so you may wonder why I bothered taking that shot at all... Many of the shots are for use on Google Earth and will probably be deleted from the public album (how many creeks and bridges do you want to see?), but hopefully they'll inspire the participants to upload and share their pictures! I can help with that if you need guidance!
See y'all soon.
Cheers.
