Florida

We did get an opportunity for an afternoon paddle. John and Jo have a house
right on the water. We launched into the gulf, paddled way out from shore,
rode the swells back in, and discovered that at high-tide, we could paddle
right up the little channel into Lake Caroline. We paddled from the ocean,
around the sand bar, under the road, up the stream, and right into the lake!
This quiet little lake with a kingfisher chattering from his perch. He
never stopped chattering, he just changed the perch he chattered from each
time we got too close. What a nice place to go for a drift.

Thanks John.
