Bondage in mud
Late Season Mud
I took my weight into the swamp, today. The location I selected posed some real challenges for recording, so I opted to record with only the GoPro camera and the dedicated audio recorder. It was still a tricky businessl; after I was finished recording, I had to drag the boat to the water, so I … Continue reading
Trip Report for Sept 2
In spite of the fact that I was way too busy in the office to take time for mudding, I ventured out to see if the low tide was back to normal on Tuesday morning. As it turned out, I found very good conditions when I arrived, so I procrastinated on my office work and … Continue reading
Swamp Marathon
I went out an hour before low tide today, because I was pretty sure I’d have another lame low tide. I figured I’d find a good spot, set up, and wait for the mud to be exposed, even if only for 20 minutes. Well, the tide was already pretty low when I arrived at the … Continue reading
Rain Update
We have gotten over 9 inches (23 cm) in the past 7 days. The creek is flooded beyond hope. I checked it, yesterday at low tide. I’m not sure when I’ll be out in the swamp, again. There is more rain in the forecast. Today, after I mowed as much as I could, I uncovered … Continue reading
Wind and Water
I’ve been trying to go out in my kayak all week, but low tide has been in the morning, and I’ve had business to tend. I finally got out this morning, although low tide had shifted to just after 10 a.m., so it was more like a midday thing. As these things often go, the … Continue reading
Splashdown in New Thong
I finally got back out to the swamp, yesterday. Between inconvenient tide times and hurricanes, my swamp time has been limited. I even had a great low tide, yesterday, as we’re heading for another full moon (spring tides). I have this new Tarzan thong that is a thong with front and back pieces that hang … Continue reading
If At First You Don’t Succeed …
I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it, before, but today, I cut a piece of bamboo (about 12 feet long) and took it with me to the swamp to replace the log that broke under my weight a couple of days ago. The idea was to hang, upside down, over the deep soupy … Continue reading
The Plan Fell Through
I set out, today, with a plan. I had dragged a waterlogged log to where I could use it to span a pool of deep, soupy mud for a bondage adventure. I used the log to assist me in crossing some mud on my way to the spot I had selected (top left photo). The … Continue reading
Return to the Newport River
The clock was ticking, and there was still a lot to do before I could leave the house. Low tide was at 3:30, and it was already 3:00. I wanted to go back to the Newport River to play in some of that awesome river mud. I also had to stop at the bike shop, … Continue reading
