Withlacooche River, South

I was briefly on the Withlacooche, North, 5 days ago. Today's paddle was a scouting trip. As I will be taking the Glen Lakes Kayak Club on a paddle around Hog Island in 8 days. I have only launhed there once. In 2005. I have stopped by many time when paddling from Silver Lake to Lake Townsend.
I was on the very low Withlacooche at 10:40.

Canaveral National Seashore

Launched from Lot 6 in the Apollo Beach end of the Seashore at 1:09
Due to wind, I only took one photo until I reached a cove that often has manatees. They were present.

Silver River

Springsfest at Silver Springs State Park. I knew it would be busy, but holy shit. Half a dozen outfitter vans and trailers. Plus the park rentals, plus people like me. A long line to sign in and pay. I just walked to the launch, 5$ in my PFD if anyone asked, and was on my way.
On the water at 8:34
