That's right, lookin' like you won't be real hot tonight
You're not sure, huh?
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Most people hate the rain
It's gloomy and cold
And it makes you want to stay inside a cuttlefish fire
But for kayakers, rain is the tits
It means big water, big waterfalls
And even runs and paddle every day can be completely new
During the winter and spring in the Pacific Northwest, it just rains
And it becomes total kayaker paradise
Of course, white water can be unpredictable
Crazy shit can happen even if you've done the same move a hundred times
Like what happened to me on lower zigzag
I was offline coming into the river wide entrance hole and dropped into it sideways
It grabbed me, it was not letting go
After several tries to escape and multiple window shades, I made the decision to swim
But that was a horrifying choice because just downstream was a deadly river wide log jam that has claimed a life not long ago
Jeff Calhoun was on river left with a throw bag, but we nearly missed the connection or he could have pulled me safely to shore
At this point, I knew my only option was to swim into the last chance eddy on river right
I swam my ass off and thankfully made it safely into the eddy
I'm humbled by this experience and have learned from it to never ever let your guard down
That will never be as strong as the water
But you know what they say about getting back on the horse that kicks you off
Myself and Nicole stouted around a lot on our own or with the crew guys
But even surrounded by males, Nicole and I were a team
It's cool to find a partner like that, someone who you look out for in the river and vice versa
Someone you can learn from, trust and laugh with all the time
It's already nightin', it's too late now for us to fight it
Oh no, I think I'm gonna start it right, right or blue
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I think I'm gonna start it right
I think I'm gonna start it right, right or blue
I'll get it, yeah, punch ball with the tits, but yeah, we all just rounded punch balls around the corners with Rocko
Hell yeah, life is good, sunny day in the PNW, I love Oregon, I love U-Girls, woo!
Yeah, dude, this looks sick right now
Yeah, pretty big room, it's beautiful, and that's a long ass walk
Yeah, yeah dude, haha, I'm scared it's sick
Yeah, I think that's really good
Norya's gonna interview you
Someone told me you made the show, there weren't nobody
It was awesome, nice!
When Davis jumped in after you, oh my god, everybody was like screaming, it was so cool
I'm just glad I gave it
Are you leaving?
Trina!
What the fuck?
What the fuck?
Trina, come take our interview
Yes
Trina!
