Spent most of the morning cleaning Sherman. Then after lunch, we took the kayak out on the river!
It's a bit of a pain setting the kayak up. From the time we get it out of it's space under the couch, to the time it's ready to go in the river is about a half an hour. Then of course it all has to be dried up and cleaned up and put away again.
But, when you don't have anything better to do, it's not that big of a deal!
Almost did some white water!
Ruins from an old Spanish fort.
There's Sherman!
I think he must be the most photographed motorhome ever!
Heading back.
We were able to do 45 minutes. The river gets too shallow upstream, and then the dam blocks us off downstream. But, we enjoyed the ride and it's a bit of exercise.
Then, it was back to Sherman to sit outside and have a beverage and a few games of backgammon.
Our spot by the river.
So, we're heading to San Angelo State Park this morning where we'll do some more hiking and biking. This state park is also where some members of the official Texas longhorn cattle herd live, so hopefully we'll see some of those!
Sunshine and blue sky again today. Supposed to be a little warmer, with a high of 88F (31C).

And in Canada...
Lovely day for you.life doesn't get much better!@
ReplyDeleteNope, life doesn't get too much better than that! :-)
DeleteIt looks nice to be on the water. Sherman sure looks happy.
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful to be out there on the water but it would have been even nicer if we could have paddled further in either direction and I guess we probably could have if we had wanted to portage.
DeleteWe think Sherman was very happy there. :-)
Looks like a great day for kayaking, that kayak sure turned out to be a good buy
ReplyDeleteWe were just saying that the kayak was worth it. Hopefully we will be able to get it out a fair bit this summer.
DeleteWe love our Kayak too but sometimes it is just easier to go for a walk. Hope you stay warm for a while longer.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it is easier but sometimes you can't walk along the river bank or lake shore so it is nice to see things from a different angle.
DeleteWe intend to stay south for as long as possible, our fingers are crossed that as we start to head really north that spring may finally start showing itself.
Sound like a fun time enjoying the great weather.
ReplyDeleteWe are enjoying this nice weather, hopefully it will follow us north!
DeleteLooks like a nice day and some good time on the water.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great day! :-)

ReplyDeleteI had that book as a young child but I don't think I had ever read it. I think at the time I was just a little too young for it or not interested in it, now I wish I had read it.
