Guest Stories Rafting Blog - About Us |
"WWW's webmaster gets all wet..."- Written by Rob Robinson For the past four years I had been taking care of the White Water Warehouse Web site, seeing all these pictures and reading all these stories of people having a great time rafting on the Rogue... and I had never done it myself! Well, the time had come. I've been rafting on a number of rivers and paddled a whitewater canoe down a number more, but from what I had heard the Rogue is a very special place. And, guess what, I heard right! My partner, Stephanie, and I had decided to take a lodge trip. Camping would have been fun too, but I wanted to be able to recharge my batteries at night - digital camera batteries, that is. With an underwater case protecting my camera, I was able to take photos all along the river, including right in the middle of rapids. Some of those were a little bit blurred at times. You are sitting on a big raft moving up and down and back and forth shooting at other moving objects. But, when you take over 400 photos, you are bound to get a few good ones. One of the photos appears below and others will appear in various places.

As I was floating along the river taking all of those photos, I was thinking, what a great place to paint! Watercolor is one of my passions. I didn't get a chance to paint during the river trip, but I did paint Blossom Bar Rapid after I returned, trying to recapture the feeling of the place (painting below). Take a look at more paintings from the Rogue River trip (on my Web site).
