Did a car bike shuttle

With low water, the current is swift, so the less up River paddling I have to do, the better.

Juniper Creek

Chiappannis, the 91 year old gas station, bait shop, general store and community center in Melrose, FL has been sold. I had only been there once. In 2017. This morning, Mark Chiappini posted that Nancy Luca would be playing at 2 this afternoon. I had not heard any live music this weekend, so I made the drive. Stopped at the Juniper Wayside on the way.
