Fun with pals on the Gauley
This was day 2, getting ready to leave Canyon Doors, the overnight camp area Class VI has on the river.
Many pictures are available at http://photobucket.com/WWR2012WithGlen.
A couple was on the river with us, and they have shared some of their photos at Google+ as well.

Dad's batteries
We got the batteries all checked out for this year. Two of the batteries were just barely wet. We added about 2 gallons of distilled water across all 12 to get them a little fuller.

Trailer lights
Blew 3+ hours pulling all the wire out of the trailer to find the wire half way down the length of the trailer was completely worn through. Spliced out the bad part and put the wire in a protective case for the full length.

Little work at dad's
Got drywall under and around the door brackets for one bay.
We were hoping to put in a more efficient fan motor in the furnace, but it didn't look right. The existing 1/3 HP motor is much smaller than the 3/4 HP Emerson he was given. The book shows a 12% savings if he goes back and gets the same 1/3 HP BPM (brushless permanent magnet motohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_AC_electric_motorr).
