Juniper Creek (Ocala)

After kayking the Silver River, Monday, I stopped at Juniper Springs for a snorkel. It was pleasantly uncrowded, and I thought, I should kayak the Creek tommorow. So I did.
Paid for $16.42 for a reverse shuttle to Juniper Wayside. So my car would be there when I finished. On the Creek at 9:30.
No orange bouys or downed trees blocking Fern Hammock Run, so I paddled up it.
