Beautiful day for kayaking and many of the logs below the surface have been moved. People in canoes still have a tough time in spots. Only three of us today so mostly scenery shots.

1 While waiting for the cars to be shuttled, it was suggested that I take the long board walk. Very long but a must-see even for those who never get in a boat.
2 The board walk alongside the very shallow clear water.
3 I knew that I would be paddling down there.
4 At the end of the board walk there is a spring not seen by those in the kayaks and canoes.
5 This was worth the long walk.
6 A last look and I headed back to the launch site.
7 There were four turkeys walking along the board walk near the launch area. I couldn't get my camera out fast enough to get all four.
8 Mark and Hannah getting in their kayaks.
9 About four inches of water and a swift current. This is the first bend.

17 I kick back for a few minutes.
18 First alligator of the day. I almost missed him and he raised his head when I paddled back to get a closer look.
