Dressing the Naked boats

Arriving at the put in, our boats were already rigged with the frames and all the food... All we needed to add was our booze and personal gear. This is Pretty close to boating decadence!

A quick orientation to our boat gear, did a loose load, and we moved the boats down to our camp for the night. We spent the rest of the afternoon futzing with the rigging, organizing our gear, receiving last bits of gear instruction... And getting into our boating zen.

Inflated the river couch... And it was a BIG hit. Kudos to ray for stuffing that into the car at the last second!

The group opted to go up to the marble lodge for dinner for one last meal served to us.

It was a gorgeous evening... Made my bed on the boat, and fell asleep under the full moon full if anticipation for the boating to begin! :)
