First off, everyone is well - healing fingers and toes, taped feet and toes - but everyone is well. Tired but loving every day. I can say without a doubt that this group of Brevard College students is truly a great group. On the river we fill from bank to bank with songs, laughter or good conversation or all of the above. This morning I woke up around six or so and I felt like I woke up from a great dream. I realized a bit later that it was real and not a dream. I carried this with me all day down the twenty-five miles of river. Before we got in the river, Jenny chased a frog to a safer place where we were moving around. On the river we saw a huge catfish - Austin touched it. On the way to the lunch spot we went through a cool channel. Before we got out we did a group photo that Chelsea came up with, spelling "VOR" with our boats. With our lunch we had pineapple and I tried my first mango. We then rode in the van for our last portage. Tomorrow we begin our week-long unsupported section of paddling!

Scott Laney
Scott works with Cheraw Parks and Recreation - which how/why we made contact. He graciously prepared dinner for us after a long day.
Day 10 camp at Scott Laney's family farm
This is our first night in SC; and Scott was kind enough to host us on his dad's property which borders the PeeDee river.
