Excitement on the High Seas (uh, River)

Greetings from the Hermit Paddling Writer, on the Alafia

This pair of oyster catchers flew along with me for thirty minutes. I must have entertained Jacko and Mimi, paddling my butt off in the heat

Chica wasn't so happy about me paddling so close to her boat

This would be a lot less effort than what I float

This might be fun

Or this

But I get a lot of exercise on my beach toy

They wanted me to slow down

I got in as the sun was setting

This gull seemed to be waiting for the sunset too

There it is

  4. I like the look of your watercraft... that's about my speed, and looks like it would be fun paddling around. I'm guessing you don't have to worry too much about leaving a wake!

  8. I'm thinking about getting on of those 'sit on' canoes - but I may have to keep that a secret!
