A good day on the river! The river is getting deeper, there wasn't a headwind, and he made it from Darr Road to Kearney.

About Me
- Ron Snell
- North Platte, For Now, Nebraska
- Birthplace Lima, Peru. Raised in the birthplace of the Amazon, by unsettled parents and the Machiguengas. On the move ever since across 35 countries, three political parties, adventures A-Z, understanding of God, and myself. Married to an unsettling wife, father of three unsettling kids, grandfather and proud of it. The end is not yet in sight, or if it is, I'm unaware. Adelante!

WOW! It looks like a real river. Here's a poem I shared with the class today and told them your dry river bed story:
"Don't Quit"
Don't quit when the tide is lowest,
For it's just about to turn;
Don't quit over doubts and questions,
For there's something you may learn.
Don't quit when the night is darkest,
For it's just a while 'til dawn;
Don't quit when you've run the farthest,
For the race is almost won.
Don't quit when the hill is steepest,
For your goal is almost nigh;
Don't quit, for you're not a failure
Until you fail to try. --Jill Wolf
Love and Prayers, Ina, intiri Apa
