Pictures taken while paddling a kayak or canoe

I'm glad I stopped in here. It never dawned on me to take the yak to tribble mill. I wonder what else is 20-30 minutes from me that I'm not thinking of. We always go to Stone Mountainlake by default because it's 5 min away.

I get on Google Earth and look for water. Then drive around and see if it is accessible.

Connecticut River. Middletown, Ct.

Those old bridges are cool, I enjoyed checking them out in my younger days!

All of these pics were taken with my phone. I am in the market for a camera less than $500. Needs to be water resistant, not water proof, and has a decent zoom. Has to be a point and shoot, takes a quick picture and the picture looks good.

Anyone have experience with cameras? I already have a GoPro and that is NOT what I want. I want to zoom in on the birds in the picture above, for example. This is not possible with a GoPro.

Thanks for any help!

AND wetter than your driveway... Get them kids a helmet, for their helmet!

I really wanted to climb up the ladder on that rotating railroad bridge. Then I remembered that I was fat and old and things like that were not as easy anymore!

it's a pretty decent lake to go on, I've tried ft yargo too. While it's a nice exercise I wouldn't recommend it for sight seeing.

Any one know of a good slower river thats not the hooch within 45 minutes or so from the walton/Gwinnett area?

You should make the trip to Cartersville and paddle the Etowah. Preferably during the week to avoid the pink donut brigade. It is a pretty river.

The Etowah is just over an hour from you.
