Turns out Jeff has been training with the US Wildwater team and some of the mebmers are there at the putin. We talk, and one of the guys is headed to Italy for the World Cup. Jeff later tells me he actually could have possibly made the team but didn't want to put forth the effort. From old Angler's, you paddle about a half mile upstream in flatwater to the Maryland Chute of the Difficult Run Rapid. The Difficult Run Rapid has three chutes, Virigina, Maryland and the middle chute.
Most people play Maryland and use the Middle chute for attainment.
It was in Middle Chute where I saw Janet Reno. Anyway, I disgress. Maryland was wonderful. Great level and enders in the Frank were booming. I mean, out of the water, and bouncing down the eddy line.
