Summary
The lead two rafts arrive early at the beach below the wedding site. They quickly make room for the subsequent rafts that will crowd the small location. They belatedly realize they don't have lunch provisions, but aren't worried. Leaving Jon and Tanisha behind, the rest decide to explore a side canyon while waiting for the other rafts.
The glen at the back of the side canyon is enjoyable and the few snacks available are sufficient while folks rest and talk about various things, including religion. Buddha's philosophy is not Buddhist, and although not his birth name, his legal name really is Buddha!
Trey arranges people and takes some photographs, including some of Myleigh modelling for him under the waterfall.
As everyone else returns, Randy and Nicole hang back. Randy expressed his pride and gratitude with Nicole confronting her fears. He also repeats his love and invites Nicole to celebrate Alive Below Crystal.
