canoe trip

October 22, 2008

New friends, Angie Dilmore and her husband Bob, met me at Parkside Marina to take a little canoe ride up Indian Bayou. We were searching for the wild gators and other types of wildlife, I know to inhabit the area. Unfortunately the gators didn't cooperate but a great blue heron, an osprey, and a first for me, a mink, revealed their presence to us. I felt bad about not finding any gators for my new friends from Pittsburgh, but I sure enjoyed their company and home-made peanut butter cookies! Maybe I'll be able to talk them into another ride, one day.
