Inspiration:     Water is the most powerful substance on the planet even when it’s not moving. Fast

                         moving water always has the potential for injury or death by drowning or hitting

                         objects. Fatalities do occur; some 50 people die in whitewater accidents in the United

                         States each year. Although this is an activity I would not participate in, I can’t help but

                         admire the human spirit of all the paddlers who risk everything for the thrill of it all.
