Crystal River

Crystal River manatee

All good things come to an end and this one may had been our last trip to Crystal River and Three Sisters Spring. This trip I did not enjoy and not even cooling my jets for a whole day is helping me with the way I feel about it.

Hunter Springs Park

Put In /  Take Out: Hunter Springs State Park. Please check previous posts from Crystal River for location details.

Do not have too many things to say about this trip, at least no good ones, so let us go to the pics.

Sorry manatee advocates. Was I supposed to hit it with the paddle to send him away?

Had some nice pics of a manatee inside Three Sisters Spring but decided not to post them. Do not want to hurt sensibilities. Will only post one of them as a closing. So this is it. Thanks for coming and hope you come back again for another post. We will be sharing with you more Views From Our Kayak.

Good Bye

  1. Post the picture. You are one of the most sensible, and sensitive, people I know.

  2. Ditto the above. And even without knowing the specifics, I know the reason you were upset was not weather, equipment, or animal, but rather human. Mostly human that should mind their own business.

    Thanks for sharing your wonderful photos and videos!

  3. What was the term you used the other time? Barney Fife? Lots of those. As I said, a moron with power is still a moron but then he becomes dangerous.
