Wekiva River and Rock Springs Run



 
Launched the kayak in the rain at Wekiwa Springs State Park. Forecast said it would stop.

On the Wekiva River at 6:40
Steady rain.  Nothing like Tuesday's deluge on Lake Virginia




The rain stopped. I turned around at 7:25

Down Rock Springs Run




Saw a deer. Ran off before I got a photo










Black bellied whistling ducks


Green heron









Landed at 8:19

Had a nice chat with a lady who had just arrived at the Park. She was camping, and was checking out the canoe beach to launch her paddle board with friends, tomorrow. We had a nice chat.  I pulled the kayak up the hill, taking the new route.  As I was getting the kayak on the roof, she came over.  And showed me a picture of a bear cub she had just taken on the boardwalk.  My old route. And, I thought all I was missing was my traditional last look at the Spring.
