Day on the River: Pelican to Cascade

here I took full advantage of a day of yesterday to float the lower section of the Missouri, from Pelican Point to Cascade. The gang from Simms was in town, and several of us from the shop – owners John, Mark and Julie and guide Beth Hood, formed a three-boat flotilla for a day on the river and took the Simms guys out.

I made it into Izaak’s for the first time – Craig’s finest dining and drinks – and look forward to many evenings there this summer.
