Summary
Scooter and Crystal agree on moving some people around to other rafts, so that Randy can get some time on the oars and Crystal can ride with Karin and Nanci. Nanci had spent some time with Noah the previous evening, and is doing her share of the work without any problems.
After a few rapids, where Nicole is obviously fighting to stay calm, they stop for a quick break. When they get back on the river, she is rowing again. Later, after another stop for lunch, they come to Redwall Cavern. The GCR trip has stopped there, and they also stop for a long break. Scooter suggests that Myleigh can do an impromptu concert; both tour groups stay for that, and a third group joins them. Scooter and Jim agree that he will stay with her in the house when they get together at the end of their trips.
They get back on the river, and eventually stop for the day. Scooter and Nicole lead a hike up a canyon, and they talk about her fear; Scooter gives her a quick pep talk. On their way down, they find Myleigh playing Brown Bess by herself, obviously not wanting company. Scooter didn't expect that Trey would be the kind of guy that Myleigh would go for, and Nicole tells her about how Trey rescued Blue Beauty.
The next day they have a short run, again with Nicole doing some of the rowing, and Scooter saw that Tiffany was also doing some rowing. Even Nanci was getting her first lesson rowing from Crystal, Karin, and Noah.
