Sounds like there might be a short story here. Why don't you fill us in?

Well thanks Brad. Its great of you to ask....
Alright, so there I was....it was a beautiful day on the Sky. Recent snow on Index shimmered in the sunlight. I had decided to wear my white pants that morning as I was feeling very, very confident. I rounded the airplane rock, still feeling confident, though noting I wasnt as close to the rock as I would have liked. I made a move for the eddy on the left anyway but missed it. The confidence was lowered slightly but the white pants remained white. Then I caught the right side of the hole there on the left below the eddie and went for a quick ride....plastic side up. I made a roll, got knocked right back over and followed up with I think 3 failed rolls. I pulled somewhere between house rocks.....the white pants fully compromised.

Josh - you weren't the only one having trouble in boulder. While I lost count, I am told I had six rolls...

Actually, I came up on every roll, just to go into a new hole a few seconds after every roll. The last one was really funny. I boofed the last ledge over on the right, but didn't boof good enough, went into the hole, and rolled. Came up, thought I was done, then got sucked back into the hole, stern stalled, so I just held it there for a moment before rolling again.
All good fun...

No, trying to do a more difficult line through BD, and it just went badly. I'll blame the fact that I had (and still have) a cold...

Now that Dave's paddle has been spotted, maybe somebody might find mine. To recap: I lost it in boulder drop while I was busy getting my swim on. I'm offering a 12pack of your favorite brew as reward. Or a fifth of your favorite spirits for those of you who like to time travel.
Thanks!
(Lief - you're not allowed to post to this thread unless you find my paddle)
