Sometimes life just takes
over and the best laid plans have to be put on hold. That is what happened to
Lex and I this summer. We had all kinds of great paddles mapped out for this
spring/summer but first the low water levels kept us off the river. We waited
and waited for the spring rains and we all know how that turned out.
Next was our big move. Lex
and I sold our house!!! With only 6 weeks to find a new place to live and pack
up our house, finding time for a canoe trip was impossible. Our frustration level was growing we needed
some river time.
The last stumbling block was
our youngest son’s move to NYC. Getting him settled in NYC was a bit more
complicated then I thought it would be. But we are back on track now: we have
had some rain, we moved (the canoe even fits in our 1 car garage) and hopefully
my children will not need me for a while.
Even with the cool weather we
are planning a trip for tomorrow; Sept 23, 2012. This will be on the Duck River
starting at Milltown Rd.
(below Lillard Mill Dam) and we will take out at Hardisons Mill. If any paddles
would like to join us you are more than welcome. Our estimated time to get on
the river is about 10:30am and we are packing a lunch. I can be reach at
615-708-0657 if you have any questions.
See you on the river!!!
