Greetings fans! I am momentarily communicado, so I thought I'd assure you all of my continued existence. I've just been running the Illinois river in southwestern Oregon, and it is amazing. Remote; pristine; beautiful water; splendid, fun rapids, except for the Greenwall, which is scary as hell. There are carnivorous plants too! I'll try and get a better post up when computer access becomes more satisfactory; the Grant's Pass public library just isn't cutting it. "Til then, enjoy Odious, and try not to forget about me.
