Hi all,

We had our first rain today, much needed here. It's been 70 to 80 every day and I'm not sure that we are going to be able to force ourselves to leave. There is such a great variety of echo-environments to kayak in. My trekking GPS has gotten me back to the launch every time.

I have an all-day trip planned down the intercoastal quite a bit inland for tomorrow. Cris gets a little nervous about finding me but it's not like Lewis and Clark days out there. I can pull up on shore and find a house within a couple miles almost everywhere. Hopefully I'll be in grassy marsh where I might run into different wild life.

Sunday we went to the 50th annual Cracker rodeo. (Had to look up Florida Crackers, very colorful people.) Local cowboys and girls, some really young trying to ride sheep. Even I know you can't ride a sheep!

We are going to take a few days on the return trip. We'll try to see Norm and Shelly in Melbourne and stay a day or 2 in Georgia. I loved that area and will find a place to kayak.

Cris has been golfing or fishing most every day. Florida has a huge variety of fish and it's been fun catching so many.

Much more to yab about but there are things pulling my strings.

See ya later.

luv sal
