Greers Ferry Lake
July 22-24, 2001

Before leaving for Australia, truk, family and friends took a trip to Greers Ferry Lake, AR. Click a link below to view video of the trip, or click a photo to see a larger version.

Jaymie considers the raft a magic carpet on training wheels. View image

"Ummmm. Didn't your orienteering get us lost on the lake last night?" View image

Dave pounces backward. This image caught him right before the half-twist with a gainer. View image

"Is that Nessie in the water? Or just Dave?" View image

Human or drowned rat. You decide. View image

"I'm looking for something. Looking..." View image

Steve prepares to flip the raft over and skim on his back. View image

Kath walks on water, something we already knew was possible. View image

"Is this the depth finder? Or the radio?" "Hey, how do you start this thing?" View image

Looking good... View image

Jaymie becomes aware he is being filmed. This is rare shot, because the sunglasses are off... View image

Is that a smile, Dave? Or a grin? View image

For the geeks in the audience, all of the footage on this page was filmed with a Canon ZR25MC MiniDV camcorder, captured using iMovie, and rendered using QuickTime Pro 5. Some of the photos were enhanced using Photoshop 5.5. And, while I greatly prefer open source software and Linux, and am loathe to admit it, all of the above work was performed on a Mac.
