Summerland Key

Summerland Key Pics: http://www2.snapfish.com/thumbnailshare/AlbumID=224146301/a=72173436_72173436/t_=72173436 We stayed in a house with my sister, her husband and our friends Buck, Lisa, Alec and Karen. We had planned a week of diving, fishing and kayaking but the wind was blowing 25-30 all week. We still managed to have a great time!



Fairhope Pier to Fly Creek

October 8
Today is a double holiday. It is both Jason's birthday and Columbus Day. Everyone at work knows I take all state holidays to be with Jason. So we decided to go paddling. I have been wanting to go Fairhope to paddle so we went and stopped by the Fairhope Boat Co to see Harriet and get some stuff for the anchor system Jason is rigging up. We put in at the pier and made the crossing to the Fairhope Yacht Club. It was a beautiful day and a good paddle. We saw a lot of pelicans and found a little sandbar with chairs already set up for our picnic lunch. The creek became small and overhung with branches after it went under Hwy 98(just the way we like it) unfortunately it was blocked by a logjam shortly thereafter. So overall we had a good paddle and by putting in at the pier we were able to stretch it to 5 miles.
