Wild Miles on the Big River
Posted by Cobrapilot from bittersoutherner.com
"Ruskey cannot piece together all that happened. He knows he went numb, and that he and his friend lashed together the pieces of wreckage they could grab. They heaved their chests out of the frigid water. As the sun slipped down, Ruskey was shivering, nearly catatonic, ready to let go of life. Given the cold water and their lack of precautions, he probably should have died.
He made a promise, to himself and to the river: If he survived the night, he would return to this beautiful place."
