The rapids were fun and I had everything tied down just in case, but I made it and enjoyed every minute. We landed around 2 PM and my car temp read 108 Yikes! We sure did not feel that on the water.

July 4th on the American River
It was hot, but oh so cool! We had a group of 16 today cruising down the American River. I woke up wimpy, it was too hot, the shuttle is a pain, I will probably tip over in the rapids... BUT so glad I went. The heat was mitigated with some intermittent cloud cover and occasional breeze. The river was not too crowded, I think we went early enough to miss the big mass of rafters. A Great Blue Heron and Snowy Egret welcomed us on the water and we saw a family of otters playing on the bank.
