Underway at 2:51. Delayed by ants in the car. Little black ones. I think they came in from the tree I parked under at the off site airport parking location. I thought I had squashed, vacuumed, and drowned most of them Wednesday afternoon. Not so. Shook out all the floor mats and other items they were on. Have not noticed any more. We'll see.
The no rain forecast was wrong. But not by much. Just a few drops. Thunder rumbled in the distance. A kayaking coming downstream asked if I knew which way the storm was going. I did not. I was going to ask him if the River was clear, as there was a lot of water hyacinth. He said, 'It's blocked at the outdoor classroom"
Need a thousand manatees to chew through this stuff
Turned back
Back to the Hillsborough
Lots of hydrilla at the dock
Landed at 5:00. Loaded the kayak, made the short drive to Morris Bridge Park for some more paddling. Made a stop at a Circle K half way there for a couple taquitos to ward off hunger.
Back on the Hillsborough at 5:45.
Paddled up River
Two deer on the right bank

Last pic, 7:53. I'll be back here, Friday night, after work. Got a place across from the beach and on the bay in Treasure Island for $114.41. For Friday and Saturday night.
