My dad came to Chile to visit me. It had been rainy and dark until he came; I suppose he brought good weather. Now, here I sit, the day after his leaving, looking out at the rain and clouds again. This bad weather really makes me appreciate the sunny days. Yesterday was a bummer because my dad went back home, but it was also one of the best days I’ve had on the river. As soon as we put in I was, for some reason, afraid to get out of the eddy. I sat, trying to talk myself into going out and playing, but I couldn’t. Tracy came over and made me roll a few times in the eddy; everyone of them was successful. Then, Gorski and Tracy convinced me to roll in the current. The next thing I know Jess is telling me to try to loop. By the end of the session I was getting the first half of my loop. I’m so grateful for having Jessica, Gorski, and Tracy’s patience, and me being in their group.
