Boating stories, please. Pretty please? Throw us polar bears a bone. TIA, --Vic Ok Vic: I just got back from Chicago where the Lake was NOT frozen. However, here in Tallahassee, it was nearly 80 last Saturday, took the Tolman to Carabelle to go to Dog Island but it was too rough outside. So, went up the river instead. Had lunch on a spoil island, went further up. Carabelle River becomes the New River flowing out of Tates Hell Swamp and winds for miles through the National Forest. Waaaaaaaaay upriver, there were several sailboats tied to the bank in the National Forest and they looked like they were long termers, river only about 100' wide. Hmmmm, no slip rent, not a bad idea if you like 10 miles on a dirt road to get to the nearest paved one. Interesting old iron bridge with a road going nowhere. We coulda gone further but were running out of daylight. This sort of exploring is the reason why I built the Tolman. We'll be thinking of you when its 100 degrees and 99% humidity. |
