Hey, my car is not "smallish."

I have to go by Canoe Kentucky to pick up a paddle. I could ask them to use an outlet there. Surely I could make it to the take out to meet everyone with it on top of my car. If, of course, the raft fits on top of my itty, bitty, teenie, tiny hotwheels car.......

In my experience, the small raft pumps work fine to get the raft mostly inflated; then you use a barrel pump to top it off. This is how we did Tim Miller's rafts on the Lower Gauley.

Sorry Bethany, no affront to your fine, fine automobile was intended. Still, trust me, you don't want to go strapping this thing to the roof of your car fully inflated to transport it to the Elkhorn. Take it from someone with extensive experience in these matters. It's possible, but it's not adviseable.

Hi Todd (Woody). Yes, I am sending the double action pump with Bethany for topping the raft off. Even when using the shop-vac, I still have to top with the double action pump.

Anyone that wants to drive to Versailles and ride with me is more than welcome. It is a little shorter than driving to Frankfort.

I'm interested in carpooling. I'll have room for one in my car, if anyone wants a lift.
Just let me know.

I live off of Rosemont Garden in Lex, Russell.

Russell, Brandon has your watch. It kept beeping early in the a.m. and I talked Brandon into taking it for a couple of days. He'll be at the clean-up, so hopefully he'll bring it along.

Sorry about the alarm, it must have gotten activated. Press both buttons simultaneously on the face to turn off the alarm (a little icon of waves should disappear when you do)
