What can be better than to be out on the water on such a beautiful day? Being the temperature was perfect and I have not had the opportunity to go kayaking, I decided that today would be that day. Let me tell you, it was exactly what I needed. Being able to just take in the nature and not have to worry about anything.
I never realized how much I truly enjoyed kayaking until I was unable to go since I moved to South Carolina. The hardest part was trying to determine where exactly we wanted to go. Back home, we always tended to go in flowing water (usually down the river) but down here it is hard to figure out what river to go on, but also where you can put in and pull out.
Therefore, since we did not completely figure that out we decided that we were just going to go to a lake. We had all plans on going to Edwin Johnson Lake but somehow ended up at Lake Craig. I have never been to Edwin Johnson Lake but I can say that Lake Craig was beautiful. There was a great boat launch which made putting the kayaks in super easy.
Well after three hours of just taking in the scenery, sun, and nature we decided to paddle in to shore and plan our next trip (which will be this Saturday!). I guess I finally understand what it means when people say, “you always want what you don’t have.” I finally have kayaking back in my “life”.
