ri-par-ian--relating to or located on the bank of a natural
watercourse as a river] If a boy is lucky, he will grow up sharing
his youth with a river. Add a river to a childhood and every boy is
a potential Huckleberry Finn. The river beckons adventure and the
boy answers. In 1967 the Wells Dam Hydro Electric Project formed
the Lake Pateros Reservoir which swallowed up the last wild stretch
of the Upper Columbia River in Washington State. A once vibrant
stretch of river course became a placid lake fouled by milfoil weed
and algae blooms, submerging forever beneath forty feet of
glacial-blue water a magical playground where a boy once lived,
roamed, and explored. In his memoir Growing Up Riparian T. M.
Johnson recalls the ten years he spent growing up on the banks of
the Columbia River when the Columbia was yet Mighty and a boy still
young.
