All Day Adventure

Posted by on August 31, 2020

On Sunday, August 30, I took my kayak to the river and paddled 2.5 miles (4km) to a mud hole I haven’t visited in a long time. I had to hack some trails through the marsh grass. Once I have trails, I don’t need to worry as much about getting cut up by the grass when I’m nearly naked.

After cutting trails, I drank about 16 ounces of water and set about recording some mud video. I did some total immersion, one dive, and a “Tarzan” clip. I recorded a scene where I was tightly hog-tied in the mud, but I neglected to turn on the microphone, so that one is pretty much a total loss.

I also grabbed some “behind the scenes” GoPro footage, as I was exploring, cleaning up, etc. I took my time and enjoyed being outdoors, on the water. I stayed until I had only 45 minutes until sundown and the return paddle took over an hour … thanks to a detour and paddling against the incoming tide. It was getting dark when I got back to the boat landing. I was exhausted, sore, and famished. It was a good trip.
