"Boating is a beautiful thing" said Trey...right on!
Learning to row those heavy boats with huge long oars, through little rapids, catching and escaping eddies, learning to push row with the right technique, and getting a workout from it…I loved it all. Just riding in the boats was wonderful too – drifting, thinking, daydreaming, talking, telling stories and singing, having water fights, and mostly, listening to the guides’ stories and information about the geology, biology and history of Grand Canyon. And their jokes!
Now I REALLY understand what my father has been saying when he says that if he had done this trip when he was 20 he would have figured out how to stay and make a life there.
