So after spending the weekend with the gang here in the north at the OctoVRFest Rally in Gettysburg, Pa…I headed a little further south to spend a week enjoying the mts and country roads of West Virgina.
One word…heaven. Got to like roller coasters as it seems your forever either going up or coming down a mt…Roads are pretty much vehicle free…as well as gas station free also…so you quickly learn to top off whenever you pass one.
and a "never ending sign" around every turn...
Final highlite to the weeks vacation was having my two best friends come down from Ct to join me in whitewater rafting the Gauley River on friday,
something we’ve talked about doing for years but never could seem to pull the trigger on doing. Being so close, and with the annual big releases scheduled this time of year, it was time to finally either poop or get off the pot…. was everything we hoped it would be and left me promising my daughter to make the trip again next year to do it again with her….
(make sure you view video below on full screen)
pretty much like the video only we had a great raft guide....we never flipped...still...can't be afraid to get wet or go for a swim....7 rafts left...7 rafts returned...no casualties...but alot of smiles and alot of laughs.
Shame its so far away…would make for a fun trip for the gang to do together…who knows…maybe one day. Like they always say…"plan it…maybe they”ll come"…..
