TiS tHe SeaSoN....


For river rafting on the Kaweah!
As I lounge on a boulder down by the river in my backyard sipping red wine, the sounds of Three Rivers surrounds me: the water rushing by, the birds chirping, the frogs croaking and the crickets strumming a melody. My focus is interrupted as I hear a faint sound that is getting louder.
It is a rafting guide shouting out stroke commands. Also heard are the sounds of cheering rafters as they overcome the class 4 obstacles on the river.
As they float by, we exchange waves and a quick hello. Then all is silent again with only the songs of nature to assist my imagination as I ponder the thought of how living in Three Rivers is like being on vacation 365 days a year! Come join me!
