Default New hobby

Last Friday we went to the Bass pro shop and bought some Kayaks.Ever since then I have gone out every day since then.I have paddled up and down the Island and my next advanture is to Morgan island.Morgan island is a Federal Island which they keep Monkeys to do research on.The one that is light blue is the one I will be making the trip in.It is a otter xt which is mine.Does anyone else go kayaking or enjoy in water sports?

+2 for white water rafting.. got to go in VA a few years back with family.. that was a blast.. i have looked at kayaking and those single man boats for white water rafting and have wanted go get into it more but havent had people that were really interested enough to fork the cost and take a serious interest..
