SandyBottom's Sea Kayaking and Other Adventures: Oasis

Oasis

At 1:20pm Monday a Walgreens was spotted off the port bow. It was conventiently near a public boat ramp with docks and bathroom. SpiritWalker was there on the docks waving them in. They stopped at the ramp for a quick visit to Walgreens for supplies, water and food.

In the call home they said they were aiming for proximity to the Lake Worth inlet. They hope to exit the inlet tomorrow morning if conditions allow. The gusty unfavorable swirling winds in the ICW spin them around if not careful. The Mosquito does not sit down low in the water like a single low-volume kayak would.

About SandyBottom

A senior with 2 kids grown and flown, married to Paul 30 years, a recently retired medical researcher, and was a sometime adventurer. Now, its ALL about the adventure. I was born and raised in Hawaii, and have a love of the outdoors, camping, the beach, and the ocean. I started paddling with white water in 1981 when I met my husband. My first real sea kayaking experience was actually on a sit-on-top in Kailua Bay on the Island of Oahu in 1987 while we were visiting family. Two children and years later, a chance opportunity to try sea kayaking again in 1996 resulted in a love and passion that provides me with fun, excitement, relaxation and/or exercise, and most of all, adventure. I’ve not stopped since.
