KHUN CHUCK FEELS MUCH BETTER TO BE MOVING AGAIN. A DEEP RAVINE WITH CACTUS THE SIZE OF MAPLE TREES LEADS DOWN TO BLUE CLEAR WATER . IT TASTES GOOD AND HE'S EAGER TO INFLATE THE RAFT AND GET IT IN THE WATER . THERE'S SOMETHING SUBLIME ABOUT THE SOFT SOUND OF A SLOW MOVING RIVER .
THE RIVER IS NOT BIG. LIKE MAYBE IN SEATTLE ON THE DUWAMISH A COUPLE MILES UP FROM ELLIOT BAY . ONE CURIOUS THING - WHEN HE ROLLED OUT THE RAFT HE FINDS THE BOYS ON THE SUBMARINE HAVE LEFT HIM AN OLD INSTAMATIC WITH A NOTE ASKING FOR A FEW SNAPSHOTS ALONG THE WAY.
THE REALLY GOOD THING ABOUT THIS RIVER IS THAT ALTHOUGH IT MAY ACTUALLY BE FARTHER THAN GOING BY THE ROAD. YOU CAN'T SEE IT ALL AT ONCE, JUST UP TO THE NEXT BEND . PADDLES ARE IN THE WATER AND KHUN CHUCK IS MOVING.
WHAT ? A DAY WITH NO DOCTORS ? HOW INCREDIBLY NICE , ( SORRY KEVIN , ) . 2 GREAT WALKS TODAY , ONE WITH LUCIA FROM THE OOH LA LA GANG , AND ONE WITH SISTER CAMILLE OF THE KHUN CHUCK V FORMATION . CAMILLE AND I WERE WIRED FOR SOUND AND WALKED ALL THE WAY DOWN SYCAMORE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD , QUITE NICE ALL AROUND .
I'M ON A SLOW DRIFT , KHUN CHUCK
