Serious question. I had a friend born and raised near Seattle who I invited to come on a float trip in southeast Missouri. Her mind was blown that this is a thing people do - drinking and making a ruckus while floating down a river.
In MO, this is just a thing that people do. At least in rural areas. I had no idea it was regional. So, how far across this region does the concept of float trips go?

I know what you’re referring to, but we don’t call it a “float trip” here (Iowa). There’s no specific term for it. You just ask if you want to go tubing down the river and camp for the weekend. The drinking is implied of course.
