Paddling The San Marcos River

I spent Saturday canoeing the San Marcos river with my son and a friend.  The section we paddled was a narrow, gentle river  that wound its way past high sandstone banks, through cattle farms, and past some big houses.  There were enormous cypress trees, herons, red-tailed hawks and a bunch of turtles who were enjoying the sunshine.   The water was cool as it’s spring-fed, so we spent about an hour swimming in a big pool.  It was my first time paddling Texas water, and we all had a great time.

    Ha! Glad you enjoyed Texas, wish I had known you were in town, would have liked to shake your hand. You saw some of the “purtiest” parts, Central Texas has a few nice areas to get wet. If you pass thru again, shoot me a message.

    I’ll be in the Austin area until the end of March. Let’s grab a coffee sometime.

Typos, Etc.
Anything that appears to be an error in spelling or grammar is actually the author’s clever use of the vernacular, and as such is not an error, but rather a carefully placed literary device demonstrating prodigious artistic prowess.
