I was kayaking in the East river. We went north to East river State Park them headed south looking for standing waves against the current.

We were early for Castle William but saw a few in the buttermilk channel.

One highlight was a vendor who really went the extra mile to sell us some smoothies. 

Water was 52 air 75.

Truth: there is always someone who goes farther.

 We were kayaking off of Ft DeSoto park 

See the Strava track:

We did a circumnavigation of Egmont Key. The wind and surf picked up on the way back so we really had to work for the last half hour.

We saw two huge turtles that seemed to be mating on the return. The largest must have been 4ft across.

Truth: a bridge is a connector 

Release date 2/5/2026

 I released this message in Baja South of Ensanada. I was back here after a 2 year Hiatus.  Everything was about the same stunning scenery good friends, great food.

We have done trips on both sides of La Bufadora this week. 

Swell has been pretty big most days. I paddled a long way out to release the bottle hopefully it will go a long way 

I forgot to turn Strava on after lunch so an hour or so is missing from the track

Unfortunately I have a lot of work to do this week so I was stuck in this corner office. 

But I did do some paddling. I wasn't feeling great and was very conservative.
