Pelican Paddleboat Express!

I'm just now getting to make this post about our excursion to a local park with water access this past weekend.

WE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME!

Sorry, was so excited I got ahead of myself . . .

My husband and I decided to head off to a water spot this past Sunday and since my middle son, Adam, had the day off, he came with us.

We're thinking of upgrading our paddleboat, so we checked what the local park had available and rented a boat there.

We spent about 4 hours paddling around, just being lazy, drinking our diet cokes and swapping jokes. Got a little bit of windburn (we used sunscreen, so no sunburn) and got a great workout at the same time.

Talk about a relaxing day. The paddleboat we rented was nice, but somehow we want just a little bit more room available (with Adam along, it wasn't that it was tight, but there wasn't much room left over for the cooler) for the extras on our new paddleboat.

Hopefully, within the next couple of weekends, we'll go to another park and check out more paddleboat models.

Hey, it's a great excuse to get out on the water more often, right?

When was the last time you got into YOUR paddleboat and just relaxed the day away?
Enjoy!

We Went Fishing Instead of Paddleboating!

Yeah, while fishing isn't MY favorite thing to do, I will occasionally accompany my husband while he goes pier fishing. Of course, while he brings a fishing pole and a tackle box, I bring a good book to read and a folding chair! Yeah, sad, I know, but it works for us.

This way he gets to fish, we still spend time together, and he doesn't mind that I read while he fishes. We both get to spend time near the water, enjoy the sound of the birds and the rippling water, and the occasional conversation when something happens. Personally, I think one of the reasons he likes this is so that there is another person there to take his picture for when he catches the "BIG" one! hehehe

Anyways, I did take a few pics while we were at Holiday Park (in Southern Florida) this morning and I've added them to the sidebar for your viewing. There were some airboats giving passengers rides into the Everglades while we were there, most of them waved to us, so I took some pics of them, too.

Hope you enjoy them.
