Here the sun is setting and your first thought might be “oh, gee, the sun is setting” but my first thought was “quicksand – keep out or die.” No joke – take more than two steps forward and archeologists will be unearthing your preserved body hundreds of years from now. I can’t speak for other states, but in Texas at least, wherever you find shallow bodies of waters (rivers included) you’ll find deadly quicksand. Once you start sinking, unless you know the right moves and execute them at the right time — you’ll be deader than a beaver hat in a rainstorm!
