Not much of a Super Bowl Kinda Guy...


Wekiwa Springs Kayak

For the past few weekends I've been wanting to get back to doing stufff outdoors again. I miss doing recreational stuff outside. Freelance work and the typical domestic duties have kept us at home or in the office.

We've been doing our fair share of Spring Cleaning and trimming off the excess (literally) around the house. It's been a couple of weeks in the works. We usually bang out chores in a day or two, but our schedules have been so hectic. We have too much on our plate, although we are slowly chopping away at it.

I really want to get my fill of deep sea fishing, golf, bike trails and whatever else we can before summer rolls in full steam. This weekend we opted out of watching the Super Bowl to make another dent in our laundry list and take Sunday off to hit Wekiwa Springs.

With weather being a little cooler and everyone having their Super Bowl parties we packed up some gear and headed out to do some kayaking. We pretty much had the river to ourselves. You know how they say that somethig like white water rafting, or what have you, can tell you something about your marriage (and yourself)? Or maybe you haven't. It takes team work and cooperation to get that boat lined up just right and going where you want.

Well, let's just say when you have two people with two different ways of doing things you'll probably end up stuck on a sunken log or in the weeds. Eventually we worked it out and got it together.

Gonna have to do this again sometime...

Yes you can rent a kayak or canoe for a couple of hours for like $15. Not bad. Even better that no one was around.

Just like a successful marriage I guess - it takes team work, compromise and cooperation.
