Chip Float - Can't Pull The Double Shifts Anymore

Mother Nature threw some rain on the Great Lake State this weekend but thankfully at 10 AM on Saturday in Mt Pleasant, the rain stopped and the clouds broke free for a beautiful float down the mighty Chippewa River. The fish were there but not as abundant as previous years. A gold star to Eddie and Mike for navigating their canoes while Al and Doke fished. There were a few "wo wo" moments but thankfully nobody took a drink in the river. We literally had the river to ourselves.  
I did come to the realization this weekend that I just can't pull the double shift of celebrating (responsible celebrating) anymore. I made it to 10 PM last night and was shocked I made it that late. Old man riverrrrrr!!!!
Good time with some good people.
