I went whitewater rafting on the Nantahala in Eastern TN/Western NC. A group of 14 freinds and I went, 7 to each raft.

It was awesome fun, but I thought one of my buddies g/f's was gonna drown after we tipped over the raft (just kinda on its side) when we went down a decent rapid sideways and bumped a rock.

I actually got in the water and pulled her from up agianst a huge rock, the force that the current places on your body when up agianst something is amazing (and scary.)

I would love to go again sometime, but with college and work it's hard to find the time.

True, but I go to a crappy community college and there isn't a decent river within 2hrs. distance from home.
