A Quick Boat Ride Into The Marshes

Boating the week of the Fourth of July is a tradition on the Crystal Coast, but sometimes the tides and winds don’t cooperate. I produced this video for my friends who need a little taste of the water to keep them going. This video was taken as I crossed the Intracoastal Waterway and traveled back into the marshes by way to the channel that runs behind Huggins Island. You can see the area of the trip in the loop on this map. It is an exceptionally beautiful area where I always see some Great Egrets.

Out of options for Dad’s Present?

Give him “A Week At The Beach,” he can dream of fishing and walking in the surf http://ow.ly/m57mx Even better than that, go for a walk with your dad along the beach or see if he needs a kayaking partner. If he doesn’t have a tablet for reading a Kindle book, maybe now is the time.
