That river looks nice. Ours is full of algae - can't see 6" into the water.

there was a great rope swing there but I couldn't get close enough with my phone to take any decent pictures. I couldn't keep the boys off it

Good times, can't beat it. Big time jealous seeing as I looked at this while sitting in my shop carving on that RCP head and it had gotten to 104. Bag that its pool time

Looks like fun. I'd do that in our rivers but the currents are too dangerous.

The rivers here are just to unpredictable for children to play around in.

Nah, it's very flat here, and most all of our rivers (none very big) originate in the swamps, and they carry those tannins out with them. They're clean. Just brown.

Hmmm ours are only brown after a rain. Other than that they're usually pretty clear. Just another reason California sucks ass

I'm in Bay City...but it's almost the same.
And your right, that's why I spend 1/3 of the year up north.

Hey Red, Is that the river near the pond we hunted that first morning? River looks awesome.

I was really trying to figure out what unpredictable river you were talking about, The Docile Kalamazoo River, The Meandering Battle Creek River, or The Large but Gradually Sloped St. Joseph River... I mean the St. Joe can get hairy closer to the lake during the snow melt, but float ice should keep the children out that time of year.

I settled on you referring to infrequent oil spills in the Kzoo, but in reality your joke must have flown over my head.
