Sunday 8-12-12.
my buddy andy and i got in another new stretch of missouri river. from just above the i-435 bridge down to kaw point. most of the adventure was getting the boat in the water. had to do a little portage/drag/bushwhacking just to get into the water... pics were shot with the waterproof cover on so most are dingy.

| one of the many benefits of an aluminum boat. |
 |
| small hill no.1 no problem... |
 |
| portage |
 |
| train, that's andy in the weeds. |
 |
| one more small incline to get to the river... |
 |
| i got that shirt for canoeing across the fine state of missouri, official river rat shirt now. |
being that i invited andy to get a little river time in i should have been better prepared, at the last minute we decided to go "a little further" upstream to check out a few things along the way. turns out it was more like 8 river miles upstream, our original plan was t just do 10 miles. not that big of a deal but we didn't get in the water till almost 7pm, so it got dark on us pretty quick. we made time to stop and smell the roses though...
