Guys, there's no way you want to skip the tubing if the river is deep enough to go! It's great; relaxing, no white water or white knuckles. I know this is hard to believe if you live in rain-drenched North Carolina (I've been green with envy watching the NexRad loops for the last few _WEEKS!_ , but up here in western VA, the drought is bad and getting worse.

River levels are about 60% of their 80-year historic levels for this time of year. We go through this almost every June, but it still depresses me to see my lawn turning brown and crunchy.

Every TSTM that's hammered CLT, GSO and BKW in the past week, save one, has skipped us or petered out before it got here (cue the Howard Dean "YEEEEAAARRRRRRRRGH!")
