Yesterday it was OK once we got back in Jewfish creek but those long straight sections of the river were tough going out. Coming back I could null out the wind with the throttle and the sun felt great. We planted another coconut on the river. Of the 12 or so that we have planted, there are about 8 that are going strong. I am putting them on the spoil piles and it seems the ones up river are doing better than the ones down river. It is either the salinity or just the quality of the dirt they dredged up way back in the 60s. (after Donna) |

She said they planted some coconuts around the house. Way to many coconuts and everyone sprouted she thinks. Way to many trees. ![]() |
