Tomorrow it's off to Telegraph Creek in Lee County. It will be a nostalgic trip for me because I grew up in the area and used to swim in this creek as a kid. I remember the water being dark and fast in the summer. I also remember my brothers, with one on my arms and the other on my feet, throwing me into the water from the raft that we jumped from. Not too sure about my feelings on that memory though!! LOL Sometimes I think they may have been trying to do me in!! Anyway, we used to walk through the cow pasture and the woods to get to our "swimming hole" complete with a rope swing and giant oaks stretching over the water. We are going to paddle upstream and depending on how we feel when we get back, down stream to meet the Caloosahatchee. Should be nice. I hear it is a beautiful ride, I can't wait! I have to take pics with one hand but I will definitely have plenty. Til then!
