The article I wrote about my "death" on the Colorado (pix)

Here's the article in the Montana Quarterly. It has some interesting pix. The writing is pretty good as well. Hit the X in the box (not the circle) to bring it up to full screen.

A few quick notes.

Overly dramatic...kind whiny.
Story lacks a good ending.
The old guy character should be played by Kate Upton.

Didn't I tell you to wear a dry suit?

Three kayakers in the San Juan straits drowned last week. Warm day but cold water, and they capsized. Bad mix.

The high five was when the EMT said "I think he's gone".

Did you think you went to hipster hell when you woke up? Look at all those wispy bearded dudes wearing skinny dry suits

Definitely getting a rolling stone/UVA sort of vibe here.

Notice the living hippies... In dry suits.

It's clear from Timmy's eyes in the first picture that he didn't come back from the abyss alone.

Damn straight. I expect the people who save my life to be a little more well groomed.
