...that's me in the back. It was taken last week on a white water rafting trip at Cache Creek in northern California. Will post more if anyone's interested.

up to level 3. Not that high, but the raft was small and many of the rocks and overhanging tree branches were big.

What a great photo! Looks like you had great fun. It's an exhilarating sport. I haven't done it for 30 years and your photo brought back memories. You and your friend seem to have wet your pants! (Hee, Hee). Yes, more please.

Good photo Shawn, and good to see that you sensibly wore long pants to keep your legs dry!!!!!

Ha! I didn't think anyone would notice the jeans. Yes, I wore them the first day, mainly to prevent sunburned legs, and it worked though I got sunburned on other exposed areas (and am still recovering even today). It was a two day rafting trip. I fell out in the beginning of the first day on one of the first rocks we hit, while trying to sabotage a friend on a different raft, but stayed in afterwards. My partner wasn't so lucky (he fell out three times and in bad areas).

....alrighty, here are my pics....the quality of image is not as good as yours Shawn, as this was back in the day before digital cams. These were taken either on the Kootenay river or the Kokannee River staddling the British Columbia / Alberta border in the heart of Banff National Park.

Corrr....that really was a steep slope you were fighting against in picture number 3 and even the spectators were wearing life-vests in pictures 2 and 5! Did the guy fishing in picture 10 really pull the tree down?
I'd put up my pictures, but they were before the days of film! |

Re: ?The Supreme Court sturck down the abortion laws through an imposition of their power.? of the Canadian Criminal Code refers to ?a child before or during its birth?. The author of Section 223 admits that a ?child? in the body of its mother is in ?a living state?. of the Canadian Criminal Code states:?Every one who unlawfully abandons or exposes a child who is under the age of ten years, so that its life is or is likely to be endangered or its health is or is likely to be permanently injured,(a) is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years; or(
 is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding eighteen months.?.It is unlawful in Canada to abandon or expose a child so that its life is endangered.Aborting a child involves abandoning or exposing a child so that its life is endangered.Aborting a child is unlawful in Canada.What is needed is for people to exercise their ?right to choose? to enforce Section 218 of the Canadian Criminal Code. |
