We love to canoe, commonly on clear rivers in the Ozark Mountains, northern New Mexico, or northern California.  But sometimes, just for the hell of it, a float on the Missouri River through downtown KC is a hoot.  It gives you an entirely different perspective of the city, and maybe a hint of the ordeal the Lewis and Clark expedition endured in paddling upstream for 1500 miles.  Call us weenies, but we prefer going downstream.
