I was exhausted at this point, but my adrenaline was going. So I had enough strength to get to where I knew he was going to be okay. And I knew that if I didn't let him go, we were both going over. At that point, I was like, okay, I'm going to get to the shore. I think I pulled him enough. I got to the side of the shore, got out and just like laid on a rock and then barely went over.
And I didn't see him go into the rapids. Like I couldn't see him at all the way the river was. And so I had no idea if I had helped him. But I do remember one specific moment of terror when I'm laying on this rock, just exhausted. I remember looking back and seeing my newly wedded wife and the guide and the screaming middle-aged man fly past me.

Well, I don't anymore. There's the two cliffs on each side. I had to make a decision. I'm like, all right, I'm going to climb up this cliff and go to the service road. And maybe that's where the company van can come get me. And I'll just kind of wait there.

Okay. That did cross my mind. Maybe I could walk along the river and they maybe have stopped, but I didn't know if they just kept going. I don't know. Billy had just kept going. So I'm like, they could be miles down the river. Who knows how long it would take. So I start climbing this cliff, basically barefoot. My feet are bleeding. I get to the top and I kid you not.

Do you know what go-heads are? No. Uh-huh. They're like a thorn. They get like hard when they fall off and they're like really pokey and they get in bike tires and bike tires go flat all the time. There's a whole freaking field of them. So I take off my life jacket and I try to strap it to my feet thinking like maybe I could like scooch across this field of goat heads. Nah, it didn't work.

So I basically just had to like walk across this nasty field. All the while, they'd caught up to Billy. He had gotten out of the river, pulled the boat off. The guide was like, hey, I'm going to go up and take Billy back to the van. He's not going to want to keep going. All of them were like, we don't want to go. Nicole's like, I don't want to keep going. Like, where's my husband?
