Thanks, Jim, as always for your great planning this year! You are an awesome trip leader. It was good to get together again with the P.A.C.K. after a long absence. My son really enjoyed meeting everyone.

Despite the heat, drought, parched and burnt conditions of the Junction area, it was still great to be back in the beautiful Texas Hill Country for my third visit to the Llano. Thanks for the extra rations of water you generously provided Justin and I prior to our departure on Friday. We grossly underestimated how great our intake would be in the intense heat.

As my son hadn't kayaked in a good while, he developed a sore shoulder after one trip down the river on Friday. Hence, we weren't able to join the group on Saturday. Nevertheless, we took advantage of the day to enjoy a nice, cool tour of the Sonora Caverns nearby. It's an amazing and interesting place if you've never visited.

Already looking forward to next year's trip!

Ditto, Jim you do a great job and should be the mentor for all trip leaders. You do the best trip plans, execution, and coordination of all times......
Well, don't get a big head, but if everyone put the thought and effort you put into the trips, all our trips would be awesome.
I especially appreciate your focus on safety and taking care of everyone else's needs above your own.
We had a great group this year, the fly fishing chatter was inspiring, and the beer by the pool (thanks Mackerel) was a bonus.

Yes, thank you Jim. Meredith and I had a wonderful time. This was our first time to the Llano and we will definitely be back. Cheers!
