Kayaking again!!

Well, I FINALLY got to go kayaking again after almost a year.  Charlie called last week and wanted to know if we wanted to go with him on Sunday afternoon.  Of course the answer was YES!  We took the kayaks to Limestone bay and paddled up Limestone creek.  We came across an inlet where a couple of alligators live.  Two guys where just sitting in their kayaks watching the water, hoping to catch a glimpse of the large gator.  We were headed to a waterfall in a cove that Charlie knew about.  We came across a down tree but was able to pull the kayaks over it by holding onto one of the branches and pulling.  At the end where the waterfall was suppose to be, was a big fallen mess.  We think all of the rain that we got on July 4th, washed everything away.  No waterfall!!  So, we headed back. We stopped off at the inlet where the gators were and we actually got to see a couple of eye balls sticking out of the water.  They sank and we decided not to wait for them to come back up again.   It was getting late since we hadn't started until around 3:30.  It was a good 6 mile trip to paddle for my first time back at it.  It took us around 3 hours.  I think it's a start of many Fall kayaking trips for us.  I'm so happy to be back at it!!! Don't think my core muscles are though..ha.
