I've lived by a river and creeks all my life. My family and I used to take advantage of the river when I was younger but not much. When I was a teenager I was in the creek all the time. For the first time this weekend however I went canoeing and loved it so much that I went kayaking for the first time the very next day... I'm tired now, but I'm hooked. I can't believe I had such a fun time waiting for me and I waited so long to do it! I liked kayaking better than canoeing, so I think I'm going to buy one instead of paying to rent one all the time. Its so motivating and I want to go again. Well, I'll get another dose of the outdoors next weekend and later in September when I go camping again. Just can't wait to get on the water again.
I have almost no water around me right now, its kind of depressing. There is a reservoir 40 miles away but the rednecks around here have it so nasty and polluted that I hesitate about swimming in it.
