Fear?

What Darren said. Of course I had fear of drowning. Simple tip. When you fall in the water, lean back and lift your toes to the surface. DO NOT TRY TO STAND in moving current. I fell off the raft twice during my last time in whitewater in NC but the vest was there, and listen to your raft crew at all times!
Think about having fun and follow simple steps and you will be more than fine.

I also love rafting and swimming. My wife tell me about this to see. Everything is looking so inviting and comfortable. We also do plan to go Hawaii in coming years to spend our vacations. Sure will be great fun there.

So how was it?

Sorry I couldn't make it, I'm afraid of water!!

Besides, any trip to the Maupin area would result in a side trip to ORP...

It was great... too bad none of you could make it out, though. Maybe next year.
