After all that effort...

I went on a float trip last weekend down the Meramec River. We got caught in a pouring rainstorm at the outset of the trip, and spent about an hour huddling inside the raft-rental shed waiting for the rain to stop. Fortunately, the clouds eventually cleared up, the sun came out, and it was the perfect day to dawdle along a river in central Missouri.

Ironically, that watch I fixed last week fell off in the water while I was swimming through a strong current to rescue an escaped flip-flop sandal. So now, after all that effort to stitch it back together, the watch is somewhere in the silt along the river bottom. At least it's down there with an intact wristband.
