SWEET! Now I'm tempted! Very cool trip to always remember.

Any fish in the water? I'd be tempted to throw a line in.

The average price around here is £572 per square foot, thats $714 :doh
I'm sure I've done the sums correctly but please check £475,000 buys you 830 square foot :(
Appologies to gwoz for going :off topic .......... I'll go sit on the naughty chair right away :shame
Wow, I'm in shock. :thud I agree, back on topic but I'd be interested in continuing this in another thread somehow. That's more expensive than living in Hawaii!!! I don't get it.

I once dated a girl in High School and her Father told me I would never amount to anything. He was right!

Next video is 3 minutes so I have some time to kill while I upload. So on the way back I was stopped by the New Mexico State highway patrol. He told me I was following the car in front of me to close. He asked for my rental car agreement and I could not find it. He then asked me to step out of the vehicle and asked me what I was doing and where am I going. He then asked me if I was high on drugs and I chuckled and politely said no. He then asked if I had any coicaine, heroin, pcp, xtc, guns, excessive cash, and a bunch of other stupid questions. He then asked if he could search my car. This is where I messed up and said go ahead I have nothing to hide. Next thing I know within 3 minutes another vehicle showed up with a K9 dog. They pulled all my gear out on the road on I40 and that dog even jumped inside the engine compartment when they popped the hood. The dog did a comple 360 around my car jumping inside and even on top of the car. I was getting nervous because what if the last asshole who rented the car dropped a roach bud or who knows what. All I knew is that one pooch and 2 cops were doing everything they could to ruin my life and find something to throw me in jail for. After the dog was done I figured ok I'm good. Nope they kept on searching. Door panels were removed. All the carpet in the trunk was removed. I guess they were searching for cash or anything the dog was trained not to pick up. 1 1/2 hours later those two POS cops finally called it quits and they helped me put the car back together and load all my gear up. I said ok now that you wasted my time you are at least going to tell where the best burger joint within 10 miles is located. I never got an apology they just informed me that they have a lot of drug traffic and single travelers in out of state rental cars is a big red flag. Long story short I got my second warning of the trip. :yay

So I squeezed nine hours of sibing on the Colorado river. I cruised up and down it twice for total of 52 miles. The drive was 20 hours each way with stops by the police both ways. It was a bucket list trip and one for sure I will always remember. I ended up being the last man off the river and folded my boat up with a flashlight. This was the last pick I took. I hope you guys all enjoyed my videos.
