This was another great day. I planned on getting on the water around 0900 because several folks were going to launch and paddle a while with me. With that said, old habits die hard. I was all packed up and ready to get on the water just before sunset ?. At that point, I just took sunrise pictures from the dock and walked around a bit. Here are the morning colors. 
The actual sunrise was not that great behind the trees. 
Gus was the first to show up, then Iain and Lynn. After that, Kelle arrived and Chris. Then several other new friends. All together I had seven kayakers join the paddle for a few miles. 
This was really nice and a lot of fun. Thank you to everyone for coming out to paddle. And a special thanks to Chris for organizing everyone to come out!!
When we got to the St. Johns River everyone turned back except Iain and me. Iain paddled today and is camping tonight and will paddle into Ft. Clinch with me tomorrow. 
Only twelve miles today and it was with the current all the way. This made for a really easy paddle. We found our little Island around noon. 
We set up tents and Iain’s screen house ?. 
We decided to have an early dinner since the weather report was predicting rain at 1500. I was amazed because at 1500 to the minute it started to sprinkle ?. It only lasted about ten minutes and then cleared up again.
Iain made his special noodle salad and brought along a lot of goodies to munch on ?. 
Here’s a good shot looking east across the ICW. This is really a nice area to paddle. 
And of course we need the sunset pictures. 
And when you paddle with a Canadian you should expect the cousins to show up. They never disappoint. 
This is my last night camping on this paddle adventure. It’s really nice to share it with Iain since he and Dave also paddled out with me on the first day. Tomorrow afternoon we’ll land at Ft. Clinch and call this adventure a success.
Happy Paddling
I know you are ready to be done, but this has been a great adventure for everyone following you. Including us at Live Oak Landing. We looked forward to your posts everyday. Hope you will be posting on your next adventure, and Happy Paddling 😀😎
Hi Paul and Lorrie. Nice to hear from you. I have great memories of all the fantastic folks I have met on this adventure. Including folks like you. It’s great that you have been enjoying following along. I will do paddle posts for all my paddles in the future. International ones may not be every day. We’ll see. Best Regards, Scott
I second Paul and Lorrie: I know you are ready to go home but I am sad the trip is over. I have enjoyed traveling with you vicariously (from my warm dry home without all the work. 😊). Thank you for sharing your trip with the world. Can’t wait for the next one. Happy Paddling
Really excited for you. Wish I could be there. Warmest congratulations.
Congratulations. I have enjoyed reading your posts, seeing the morning colors, and paddle camping Lulu at New Years.
You are indeed amazing!! Happy last paddle day , Sunday, on this trip ! Cant wait to follow you on your next chapter of paddling adventures !!
Love and hugs from your GS 😁🐬🐬
