life partakes of the freshness




.
.
Our zest for the river did not wane...
We went on in much the same way, in surroundings which had become familiar, 
with not even a flood to make the year memorable.
.  
Ruts, however, are worn only in traveled ways on land: 
a river life partakes of the freshness of the river itself.  
.
Each rise and fall affords a new outlook 
and gives to a well-known shore the feel of one 
at which you have just landed for the first time...
