On Friday Martha and I drove up to Port Cresent State Park, where we met up with Rick for a weekend of camping and paddling. Friday afternoon, Martha and I took a short paddle down to the Pinnebog River while Rick went to find firewood. Then Rick and I went out from the campsite for a little practice paddle.
On Saturday we put in at Port Austin State Harbor and paddled out towards the Port Austin reef light. We then had lunch at the sand bar on the end of the reef. Martha and I then headed down to Pointe Aux Barques and Turnip Rock, while Rick scouted out a passage through the reef.
On Sunday, we headed home. We made a stop in Leonard to check out Bill's antique skin-on-frame kayak. It was made in '30s by his wife's uncle and restored in the 80's. It needs a little work on the skin, but the Sitka Spruce frame looks great.
