So one of my favorite things to do is to find treasures. Miss Evelyn and I were beach-combing down in the Florida Keys for whatever and we came across an abandoned kayak that was halfway sunk into the sand. I was STOKED and immediately got to work digging it out of the sand. Evelyn kept strolling the beach as I struggled to get the sand out of the hull (there were cracks in the kayak where sand had poured in).It took about 45 minutes of a good struggle, but I finally got all the sand out and got it floating!
Evy and I took it for a little paddle out just as the sun was going down. We passed a few fisherman that were getting their lobster traps ready for the season. Our newly found kayak had a few leaks, but we managed to make it out to the Florida Bay, where we had a nice clear view of the West.In my mind, the adventures that are cultivated from nothing but an adventurous and receptive mind are some of the best.
Here was a little reward for the energy that went into salvaging the kayak from the sand...
