& as usual you & lewis & clark got there first<br/>
<br/>
it is also nice to realize <br/>
they rowed right thru what has become the old ksmone slough <br/>
where i merely slogged <br/>
up to my calves in quickmud & catfish<br/>
<br/>
but i must say <br/>
my relative pat was taking a bit of womens liberty with sacajawea<br/>
for the expedition had passed not only ksmone but iamone & <br/>
ianesd as well before they ever picked her up <br/>
or any other girls for that matter<br/>
having by then made it on their own well into north dakota<br/>
<br/>
but at least i think i preceded everyone to idorwa in hells canyon <br/>
which they all missed thanx to her leading them down the <br/>
clearwater to lewiston & clarkston <br/>
just below all the whitewater<br/>
even if they did also see oruswa 197 years before me<br/>
& 149 years before it even came into existence<br/>

&gt; The shift of this tripoint may explains why we had trouble <br/>
&gt; locating the old cast iron monument marking the starting point <br/>

&gt; from the river bank to the monument was much too short and <br/>
thus<br/>
&gt; must have been from the original riverbank many years ago.  <br/>
We <br/>
&gt; were looking out on the flood plain and the monument is up on <br/>
&gt; the high bluff to the west.<br/>

&gt; Also, I noticed that on page 25 of the congressional hearing on <br/>
&gt; this boundary, that apparent women&#39;s libber and possible <br/>
relative <br/>

the <br/>

navigating <br/>
&gt; the river was because they had Sagajawea with them.&quot; <br/>
