Another week, another post about kayaking. Sunday a few of us loaded up and floated from my house to Carl Junction… which I estimate to be about 10 miles. This was only the second time i’ve floated downstream from the farm, but once again it was very nice. It’s been über dry lately so the water was probably a good foot lower than a couple weeks ago – a bit slower, but a great float and a great day nonetheless.

I was also on a mission to trim various branches that hang into the river from recent storms… which was a good idea in theory but I should have known it wasn’t a good idea to try and trim branches while standing in a kayak that was tied to a paddle being held by a friend standing on the shore. Good thing I bought that water proof camera case.

Here is one of my new favorite spots along the river. It’s just a ways down from the western boundary of the farm.

In this slow spot we stumbled across a cool rope swing hanging over the river. So we each had a go at it.
