I was in a boat on a river. It was kind of a speed boat or something. I think that it started out that I was by myself, and that was just kind of goofing around with going up river to this fence or gate or something that crossed the river, and then going back down river. As I was going back down river, there was one spot just as I went around a little bit of a turn to the right that I had to suddenly make a sharp right and up into this little space. I think it was just this little place where I could set the boat. Anyway, I think that the river went down kind of steeply from there, and I didn't want to go down, so that's why I had to be sure to hit that 'parking spot'.
Suddenly, I was no longer the driver, but now I was a passenger. There were four of us, and a older guy was driving it. He went up past that gate that I was turning around at, and a lot of what we were doing was hitting the river banks and jumping the boat way up in the air, somewhere between 100 and 200 feet at least. I remember being way up in the air and feeling the sensation of falling way down.
I saw all these trees lining the river banks, and they were all twisted and gnarled, but still very graceful and beautiful. There were several times that we hit the trees on the way down, bouncing off the branches, hitting the ground and eventually finding our way back into the water where we'd only go and do it again and again. It seems that we did that for a while, and then we went back out past the gate again and to that little 'parking spot', where I had to be sure to tell the driver that he had to make that sharp right turn.
