Well, after being off the water, and off the road, for about nine months I finally got my UJ pirogue back in the bayou this morning. My new double paddle works like a dream, stiff enough to really pull and "lively" enough not to wear me down. Didn't see any gators but scared up some huge Gar and saw some great birds. Nice to be back on the water. I took a couple of pics and will try to post them later on.
