Floating With Thorpe

We floated with Thorpe because Thorpe really, really, really wanted to float! Thorpe an avid canoe/kayaker from West Virginia was in town because of a conference that was happening at KU. He was signed up to go out on float with UAC on Friday with all of the other conferencies. We canceled the float because of weather but Thorpe wasn’t going to let it end there! He emailed, called, finagled and eventually caught a ride from Lawrence to Rising Sun boat ramp just to get some Mother Kaw love. We really appreciate Thorpe’s determination to paddle! It was a pleasure to make his acquaintance and another pleasurable day on the Kaw!
