Rock Springs Run

A Yertle the Turtle shot is always going to get the coveted first photo position.

Rock Springs Run

I was going to stay home this weekend. But, just before midnight, Friday, I looked to see if any sites were available at Kelly Park. Site 18 was available. I booked it, and hooked up the trailer after breakfast. No hurry to get to the Park, as there would be a line when it opened. No line when I arrived, the Orange County Sherrif at the entrance gave my a kayak launch pass. The kayak launch has a seperate entrance, at Camp Joy. I registered at the office, asked if, I could get to my campsite early, no. Camp Joy has a long portage from parking to Run. No issue, I have wheels. Only I did not. I alternate carrying and dragging the kayak. The grass was lush form recent rain, so hopefuly no damages was done. I think I left the wheels at Wekiwa Spring.

Lakes Virginia, Osceola and Maitland

Underway from Dinky Dock at 6:32. The boat ramp is closed. High water. Can't have wakes washing up on rich people's lawns.
