RoW, RoW, RoW your boat ....

Hi there...my name is Julie, I recently moved to Boulder and I'm looking to to meet some peeps that I can hit the river with. I operate a 13ft. sb raft and right now it is sitting in my garage, looking rather lonesome! And I myself am starting to experience river withdrawals. By posting this I am hoping to find other folks that know the area pretty well and can show me around. I'd love to get out on the river with anybody, but I'm also especially interested in hooking up with others that row, row, row your boat... because that's what I do. I have a pretty open/flexible schedule and can go boating during the weekdays as well as weekends. Thanks for reading this and I hope to hear from some of you out there....

If your interested, give me a jingle and we'll set something up.

i'm guessing your user name is just short for raccoons or something else but realize it's also a pretty racist term for black people too.

is there an entry in the urban dictionary that indicates "griz" is defined as someone who states the obvious, but apparently doesn't have any relevant or useful point to make?

Racist didn't even cross my mind. I was thinking you guys had been blessed by the hand of god. This is a woman who wants to go on the river...and she has her own boat!

Nice job griz. You probably made her think this site is a bunch of over-sensative, racially predisposed, river clowns.

Wow, the urban dictionary, excellent resource......

Since you've found such a wonderful reference, here's one:

Griz

Super fool
He was a Griz for throwing away his money into the river.

Ridiculous!!!

Coon (Julie), The Buzz is an excellent site and I'm sure you'll make some contacts/friends. Have fun experiencing and learning all our amazing rivers!! If you're interested, there's a small group (2 rafts, 4-6 kayakers) heading to Buena Vista this Sat. for a relaxing Browns Canyon run. PM me if that sounds good.

Well Fellas....

Thanks for all your responses. Griz your silly! The reason for Coon, if you must know, is because in Elementary school my P.E teacher could never say my last name, so he just called me Julie Raccoon. Anywho, it's just a user name, nothing to read too much into. Except I must admit that, like the raccoon, I am nocturnal and do most of my hunting at night, so watch out. just kidding.

To everyone that PMed, by the end of the day I'll holler back at all of you!

I'm excited I joined the Buzz, I look forward to making some new amigos!!

...But there are only 3 African American paddlers and they probably aren't on the buzz. Lighten up.

I don't row, but if you want another rafter to show you down clear creek you can drop me a PM.

Hey Coon,
Glad you made it onto the buzz! I can't wait to do some paddling with you.... say August 25th. I've got it marked down on my Smokey calendar. Have fun on the river this weekend.
