Newest Adventure
Everyone that knows me, knows I love to explore new things, new places and meet new people. 2009 started off with a bang by making a new discovery. On the last sunny day we had here in Fresno, ML and I had a picnic lunch on the bluffs overlooking the river bottom when a couple walked by with a little white poodle. Of course we told them about our 3 poodles and a long and happy conversation ensued. We talked about dogs, the river, fishing and floating down the river. That's when I told them I wanted to get a kayak and explore the river. Well surprise, surprise the man said he had one he sell me for $100!!! That evening I went over looked at it and bought it; he delievered it the next morning. I've hung it up in the garage until it's warm enought to get into the water and I get a life vest. It's an Ocean Kayak so I may take it over to Moss Landing and paddle up the slough to see the otters, birds and deer.

The next discovery was Sycamore Island which is by land only12 miles from home. We've already taken the fifth wheel out there and spent the night parked by a pond and watching the ducks. The dogs and I flushed two deer that leapt away throught the water onto an island in the pond. It was hazy so I didn't get any pictures while we were there but here are maps and one picture from their website.
