Wekiva River

For the first paddle of my retirement, I launched from Wilson's Landing. Both Wekiwa Springs State Park and Katies Landing are closed due to Hurricane Milton.
HIgh water and tree damage at Wilson's but the Seminole County Park is open.
On the water at 11:54. 68 degrees!

Rainbow River

Wide, spring fed rivers are good choices to paddle after a hurricane. After the Silver River on October 12 in the wake of Milton, I went to the Rainbow River on
Sunday.
On the River at 9:55 from Blue Run of Dunellon Park

Lake Sybelia

Fewer places to paddle the day after Hurricane Milton. I figured smaller, suburban, Lake Sybelia would be less polluted than Lake Fairview.
On the water at 6:01
