I remember Merritt, where I grew up, going to the river for swimming and 'tubing' many times. One day, when my friend Glen Tingle and I went there I got a little too close to the log jam and my tube and I were sucked under...I lost the tube somewhere underneath and I remember looking at the pure beauty underwater as the sun streamed blurrilly through the branches of the logs above me. For a moment I lost the fear I had of the sudden undertow and the moment of filtered sunlight still sticks in my mind of one of the best moments of my young life. I came out the other side without a scratch and my tube appeared a few minutes later.

Funny how you don't comment on the walk through the fields trying to get a ride back to town after all this. Posted by Xmatts Guy @ 10/03/2003 07:59 AM PST

Man, I don't remember that at all! Wanna refresh my memory? :) Where you at these days? Posted by Greg @ 10/03/2003 08:34 AM PST

You don't remeber having to walk through the reserve to the Hwy and calling B in his yellow station wagon to take us back to town? Posted by Xmatts Guy @ 10/03/2003 12:15 PM PST

Huh...I remember B and the yellow wagon, but nothing about that trip back home. Weird. Posted by Greg @ 10/04/2003 10:47 AM PST
