More tubing pix follow, and then the scene shifts to Cary, NC, a suburb of Raleigh, where Rebecca, Jeremy, and Penelope have relocated. Part of the California diaspora. Daughter Rachel took the Amtrak down from her home in DC for a five day family reunion. It all got more complicated, as will be explained in due course, but we had a good time getting back together in Rebecca's new digs.

"Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily..." |

Headed back for another run |

We showed her our video from running the Lochsa way back in the late 90s, Vicki, Rebecca, Rachel, and I, on a big guided raft run; 24 class IVs in 23 miles...just for perspective |

White water! |
|
Deep Creek, BTW, is an excellent NPS campground, especially for smaller units; even has wifi (Bryson City is just a couple miles away) |
|
Now in Raleigh, examining/documenting the rent car; artsy shot |

Our new storage unit in Cary; in addition to the 20-some bins and boxes from California, it contains all our stuff from Le Sport, which we sold on August 29th; long story short is that our travels planned for the next year did not involve it for more than two months,; and our desire to downsize generally...farewell, Le Sport, it was great these six years... |
