Some Final thoughts

Well yesterday we finished an epic 94 day journey filled with countless moments which exposed who we were at our core. We cried, screamed, were terrified, elated, sad, confused, concerned and lost. The one constant was each other, our love for one another and our commitment to paddle on! Amanda Mosse is an amazing wife, paddle, and expedition partner and to her I owe a million thanks which will be payed for the rest of our lives together. Now we unpack, clean and put away our gear, but how do you put this away?  How do you put away three months that change your life?  How do you walk away?  Well I'm not sure how but I'll start by cleaning, folding, and packing the material items.  The lessons are still to be discovered and journey always continues.
We stayed at the light house lodge and while we waited for Amandas parents to get us they let us to stay here free of charge until they get here tonight on the 8th.  
Next step:  well we finished the river but we still have more adventuring to do! Yesterday (Day 95) we finally met up with Mitch Selby and Malcom Reed whom we have been in contact with since New Orleans! We got to hang out with these two cool dudes while they stopped over at the Dollar General to get some supplies.  They are going to be done on either Tuesday or Wednesday and we are planning to meet up with them when they get back to New Orleans!  After that we are going to make our way back North and visit some of the amazing people along the way who have helped us!
