| Remarks | There we were, the seven of us, sitting in beach chairs on the N. Fork American River at Minerel Bar, cocked back and waiting for some action. My son saw it first as he was looking at the Big Dipper and it appeared, ripped through the center of the canyon and we were able to watch it from right shoulder to left shoulder then poof......Rocked our world and and bonded us in a moment of time to last an eternity. |
