Kayaking on the James!!!
Very few people take advantage of the dog days of summer and for those of us that do - it is ohhhh soooo sweet. Tiana, Donna, Derek and I kayaked down the James and wiled away the day. Donna got excited by the cows and Tiana by the turtles. Derek found himself with 3 ladies so he was just excited. The weather was perfect and the damselflies were out by the millions.
Derek grooming his beard.	The bus ride over to where we get put in the water.
Donna working on her stroke.
ummm, Tiana... why is there dirt on your kayak???	Derek smoothly manuevering through the obstacles.
	Tiana after i nudged her into the tunnel.
I nearly washed away, but was saved by Tiana.	The 3 of us trying to lure Derek into the water.
This is my favorite shot of the day.
Nappy time for Derek.
Pictures taken on Sunday before Derek headed out.
Tiana and Amos.	Derek brought his peach faced lovebird Merlin with him. Hard to pick who is cuter.
