I had never seen one of these, but after a minute we decided it definitely wasn't a rattler. It looked closest to a cobra to me, but it was too fat, too short and on the wrong continent. Come to find out that Texas is apparently chock full of snakes.
And on to the kayaking....
Bret Franson took this incredibly purdy shot of my first run. It's always nice to get out with awesome photographers.

Since this was my first day kayaking in Texas and these boys brought me out with them, it wouldn't have been right to bag her first. So, here's a true Texan boy, Richard Harris, gettin' the first D!
And me following in my hot purple Villain.... yeah haw!

I like the following shot because it actually shows Richard and I boofing off of a road. The rains that got this running caused an enormous flood at least 10' over our heads the previous night. Apparently, this hadn't run in 5 years or more, but when it does, it goes huge.

And I figured I'd just throw in this shot of my little girl loving the river in the safety of her PFD!
Hope ya'lls season is crushing it - I'll be making a CO cameo on the 4th of July weekend - hope to see ya!
