kayaking the eno - taking a break

One Saturday on a quick decision we took a kayak trip upstream north of Pleasant Green. Loading up the boats our neighbor Esther yelled across the road that it was supposed to rain. We said that's OK but I had hoped she was mistaken. We paddled for a mile or so and reached a nice stretch of shallow water with a mild rapid we could not go through. So we got out of the boat and took a look around and took some pictures. As we headed back downstream the rain came. It was a good hard rain. All we could do was continue to paddle. It was very moving to be on the water in the rain. It was very peaceful, beautiful and fun.
