We had a few spots of blue sky, about 5min of very very light rain and a surprisingly long queue at right side horseshoe for surfing.
After saying by-bye to the various friends and foe, we left the crowd behind as I tried to keep up with the rest of the old farts and their faster creek boats, and went down the Middle - at 4'.
Water is getting fresh, bit to cold for swimming now...but just refreshing if you flip.
But in the end I was slightly overdressed and welcoming the fresher water on the bare hands.
Another lesson; 80 gal of water and no air bags is a lot of weight. Better to have 2 to empty those creekers on the water, one at each end.
