Los Flemings

Oct. 8th Sam and I got to participate in our first Ocoee Race put on by the Tennessee Valley Canoe Club with friends Brian and Davis Sineath. Dubbed the Flaming Gnarwhals by the boys we made a valiant effort and finished fourth out of six rafts - only 15 seconds behind the 3rd place boat. After our race lap we got in our hard boats and made another lap. Amazing the difference in confidence of these two boys from their first trip down the Ocoee back in July.

and then jumped back in to surf it!
