Floating on the Ohio River

I just got back from floating on a big inner-tube in the Ohio River. People tell me not to float in the Ohio River but I can’t stay away from it. I grew up swimming in the Little Coal River. When I was a kid we had a great swimming hole with a long rope and a tire swing. The Ohio is MUCH bigger! But it can’t be any more dirty than the Little Coal River. I figure it all washes off in the shower anyway. Floating on the river clears my mind. I sometimes get mentally stuck as I am working on my sermons. So, this Saturday, I studied till I was stuck, then I mowed the grass and cooled off in the Ohio River. I think I’m ready to work again.
