Friday - We met our kayaking friends near Silver Springs State Park at Ray's Landing and paddled the Oklawaha River ten miles to Gore's Landing. We all got soaked as it rained for the last third of the trip. This is a gorgeous section of the river, with all nature and no houses. Thankfully, we each had a dry pair of sweats to put on. On the way back we stopped at Stavo's Restaurant for the best pizza we have had in a long time.
Saturday - It started off rather cool (about 50 deg), so we took our time getting going. After pancakes for breakfast, we took a walk down to the water and sat for awhile. We then hiked the nature trails here and saw the largest live oak tree we have ever seen. It was hundreds of years old and huge. We then returned to camp and got our wet stuff hung out to dry.
Sunday - Perry and Julie came over today to kayak/canoe the Black River into Lake Griffin with us. We paddled about a mile and John stayed back to fish. He usd his 4 wt. with a small chartreuse Clouser, but after fishing several places shallow and deep, didn't get a single hit. The four of us then drove over to Red Oaks RV Park to have pizza with Judy and Laurel. We had a great visit and walk around the park.
Monday - Skip and Shirl joined us here for the day and even brought baked spaghetti for dinner. We took a walk, but mostly just visited and enjoyed the perfect weather.
