Duck River

We have been exploring the area we live the past few months, and found that there are all kinds of rivers and beautiful places around us.  We went canoeing on father’s day on a 7 mile trip down part of Duck River, just a few miles from our house.

 Then, on my birthday we went down another section of the same Duck River on a 5 mile trip.  It was so much fun.  We saw all kinds of wildlife- fish that would come up and eat chunks of bread, lots of turtles that would sit on logs and as we floated by they would jump in, birds, ducks, frogs, and we did see 2 snakes, after which I did not get into the river after that!

It is so peaceful and beautiful to be at the river and spend the day floating down.

~ I had such an amazing birthday, I loved spending so much time with my family and loved being at the river all day!

    Looks like so much fun! Except for the swimming in the river part. I prefer to swim with no creatures lurking around my feet!! I’m with you on the snakes…ewwww!

    I agree with Lisa…looks very fun and I’m glad you are all safe amidst the company of all the creatures such as SNAKES.
