And Then There Was More

It snowed!

Not the usual Tennessee snow with 1 to 3 inches of accumulation, then maybe a little "wintery mix", then complete meltdown by the following morning.  No, no! Not that at all.  Around SIX inches fell before we went to bed Monday night.

Yak Attack!

When the Middle Tennessee monsoons ended, we started chomping at the bit for the first warm day to come.  Yesterday, when it was only in the forties, we did laundry so that we could have the warmest day of the week (today, 50s) to get out in the Kayaks.  The general consensus  in the morning was to try, for the first time, our own creek, Salt Lick Creek.  This was uncharted territory, with many potential challenges.  There may be trees across creating strainers or requiring portages, or, if the water wasn't high enough we might have needed to get in and out of the boats fifty times to get past shallow riffles.  As it turned out, there were few major challenges, only one portage, and the water was high enough to be really fun!  Unfortunately, the funnest water was where the photographer (Micah) needed to focus on paddling, but here is a lovely view of a perfectly lovely day!
