Shingle Creek 6/24/25

Thanks, Richard, for rescheduling this trip that was cancelled last month. Six paddlers braved the heat and paddled 9.2 miles in the triple digit heat.

The morning paddling was very pleasant, and I was thrilled to get the pictures of the great blue herons we saw up close! We were delighted with the fully air conditioned restrooms at the Northwest River park! At lunch Amy shared her grapes and Cathy brought brownies! 

After lunch, on the way back, the heat continued to build. It was getting so warm out that the river water was too hot to cool my head when I dunked my hat in!

We did stop at Southland for ice cream and AC. While there I held a mini class on photo manipulation using Google's Magic Eraser on my Android phone. See the results at the end of this album.
