The campsites are mostly very nice, and it has full hookups ... water, electric, sewage, cable and wifi! As for canoeing, At the age of 53 my husband and I bought our canoe and wondered 'what in the world are we doing?" Now, almost ten years later, we still love paddling!Becky Garrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03124407753367247995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-28219511890525168052015-01-03T16:57:56.762-08:002015-01-03T16:57:56.762-08:00How often?

Both Merikay and I are intermittent sleepers, and so we are likely to get up and sit on the chairs without much between us and the new brown towel material. <br /><br />Last time I wrote something like this, I got our web site blocked by a rating service, to which my employer subscribed.

They look great. Glad to hear you are enjoying the State Parks there in Florida. If you make it out to Oregon, we'll show you some Oregon alligators, and some Oregon State Parks. Then you can compare.

I love what you have done with the chairs, but just wonder how often you sit on them with a bare bum? :O <br /><br />Your description of your first canoe paddle made me chuckle too.
